D480
Dinky 480 Bedford 10 CWT. Van 'KODAK'. Very near mint/boxed. Harder to find in a plain box. From The Harrogate Collection.
Notes
Issued between 1954-56, this Bedford Van is in vibrant, all original condition, with a fresh paint finish, red ridged wheels and a bright baseplate. Fine tyres.
Transfers are perfect on one side, very near perfect on the other ( tiny mark in the letter ‘C’ of cameras). Little raised casting mark on the roof. Couple of negligible dots to the paint finish.
Looks unused with gleaming original silver radiator and none of the usual marks at bumpers or headlights.
The plain card box is a harder find. This example is very clean and crisp, showing minimal handling. No tears or graffiti. Virtually shop-fresh!
