D983

Notes

Issued between 1958-63 and comprises Dinky Supertoys 984 and 985, this is a most impressive set for your collection in all original condition. This two-part set has a vivid bright shining finish, and extremely bright metal parts throughout. Obviously never played with or indeed handled very much.

Both items have a few tiny asembly marks at the rivets that do not really detract and the trailer has a chip on the top back edge of the upper deck.
The “DINKY AUTO SERVICE” lettering is perfect on both sides of both models. The top deck of the car carrier can be raised and lowered by turning the handle at the side – this works well. Eight Dinky cars can be accommodated on the carrier and trailer. What a great display piece in your collection!
The very large box is a fitting partner. Such a large card box nearly always sustains wear at corners etc. – this example has a scuff at two corners and a little minor wear besides.

Notably, it comes complete with a large inner card packing piece as well as three thicker card wedges (original) which secure the items in place.

Instruction Leaflet is included, along with a scarce additonal card promotional piece, too. Great to display alongside the set.
