Notes
From one of the largest, private collections we have ever seen, with many items bought new at the time and stored away until now. Taken as a whole, the collection provides an exciting, kaleidoscopic snapshot of popular diecast toys issued during the 1960?s -1970?s.
What a fine Dinky military breakdown truck! This desert sand issue is in close to pristine condition, with all delicate parts complete and intact, hole for driver (this version was never issued with a driver).
Just the occasional very minor mark away from mint that you have to really hunt for!
So often damaged due to the weight of the truck, this box is notably bright, fresh and complete with all end flaps. Tear to the tuck-in part at an end flap has been re-inforced and the other has been re-attached. Minor grubbiness. Complete with card packing piece.
A premium quality military model from the French Dinky factory made between 1972-74.
