FD25O
French Dinky 25O Ford Milk Truck. Excellent plus/boxed. Rare. Complete with all 10 churns. From the Italian collection.
Notes
Now here’s a Dinky model you don’t see too often! Issued between 1954-55, this is a very scarce item and notable that it comes complete with all 10 little metal milk churns.
So prone to chipping at the raised edges of the sides of the truck, this example has a few of the usual little edge marks. Flake of paint around the rivet (assembly).
Note too that the lettering on both sides is intact. Cab is in virtually mint condition – this Ford Milk Truck displays beautifully! Metal parts are bright . However, at some time the French Dinky number has been written on the base.
The distinctive deep red and yellow box is in excellent condition. Very little of the usual wear at edges etc.and the colours are strong. Space inside for storage of all the little milk churns. Deep yellow insert is present into which all ten churns insert. However, the dark red block pieces which slide underneath the yellow insert are no longer present .
