D948
Dinky 948 Tractor-Trailer 'McLean'. Near mint plus/boxed. Dated 1961.
Notes
Issued between 1961-67, this fine Dinky commercial truck is in all original condition with a bright red cab, red plastic hubs and a grey back. Note that the grey plastic trailer has retained its true colour (often they can become a yellowish-grey colour).
Complete, delicate transfers on both cab sides. Complete transfer on one side of the trailer, tiny rub to the other. Minor wear to the rear transfer doors.
The rear opening doors on these models are prone to damage. Happy to say that both doors open and close well.
Presents well.
Very minor mark where the trailer attaches to the base of the tractor unit (often there can be quite a lot of chipping at this point). A couple of small marks on the cab and a couple at a front bumper.
The striped Dinky Supertoys box (with large italicised/sloping print) is bright and complete with no splits and only minor age wear.
Dinky stamp inside the lid dates this particular example from 1961.
