Dinky 252 Refuse Wagon. Orange & grey - scarce late issue with plastic shutters and wheels. Very near mint/boxed (slight wear). With original packing ring. From a single owner from new collection in Buckinghamshire.
Notes
Many items from this collection were bought new during the 1960?s, after enquiring in toyshops for old, unsold shop stock.
In very close to perfect condition, this scarce late issue model is finished in vibrant orange and pale grey with green plastic shutters and red plastic wheels. Window glazing. Black knobbly tyres. Silver radiator and headlight assembly. Bright shiny winding handle works well.
A hard find in this condition.
Upon closest inspection, you will find a few little marks, and a couple of small casting marks on the grey sides.
Looks completely unused.
The correct paler yellow late picture box is clean, crisp and bright, complete with all end flaps. Little puncture on one end flap has pressed back into place. Little wear and tear at end flaps. Pen writing on one end flap.
