D948
Dinky 948 Tractor-Trailer McLean. Near mint plus/boxed. From the London collection.
Notes
Issued between 1961-67, this Dinky commercial truck has a vivid red cab, red plastic hubs and a grey back. The rear opening doors on these models are especially prone to damage – this example has excellent and complete rear doors! Detailed McLean transfers on both cab sides are perfect. Indeed, all McLean labels throughout are complete.
Closest scrutiny reveals a few extra dabs of well-matched red paint on the cab. Most likely visible under strong light and magnification however. Usual marking to the coupling area of the chassis.
The Supertoys box is really clean, bright and complete Small storage scuff on one side of the box. Really a very fine example indeed with bright staples. Faint pencilled writing on the lid.
