D413

Notes

Exceptionally rare to come to the market place, and indeed the first we have ever seen or handled, this Austin Covered Wagon is finished in a distinctive original cherry red with matching wheels, and tan tinplate tilt.
Distinctly different colour shade to the comparatively ‘standard’ red and grey issue.

Just a few very minor marks may be seen upon close inspection and a few light (box) rubs at the sides. Area of thin paint on the bumper and one front wheel arch has had a discreet lick of paint at some time.
Correctly presented in the dual-numbered 30S/413 box with a red spot (in the print) at the end flaps. Vivid colours and the card feels crisp. No tears. Clean. Edge crumple at an end flap. Crease. Pencilled price of 2- on one face.
One of the best surviving examples – we do not expect to see another for a long, long time.
Missing from even the most comprehensive of commercial Dinky collections.
Another exceptional piece from this collector!
