D073
Dinky Dublo 073 Land Rover & Horse Trailer. Excellent plus/boxed. Scarce late issue with black treaded tyres, black plastic ramp, and light yellow picture box.
Notes
Delightful range of models issued between 1959-64 as part of the Dublo Dinky range, a 1:76 scale model to suit the Dublo train layout. Now regarded as highly displayable collector’s items in their own right!
This is one of the more difficult models to get in this small range. The Land Rover is finished in bright green with black plastic treaded tyres. Trailer is finished in orange with black plastic treaded tyres and a black plastic ramp. Complete with the original horse.
Upon close inspection, one may see a few little marks at some exposed edges and there are a couple of touch-ins in a deeper shade on the trailer where it has come into contact with the Land Rover in the box.
Note that this is a late issue produced towards the end of the production run. Not an easy find.
The correct paler yellow picture box is very crisp, bright and fresh. Couple of little crumples.
