D491
Dinky 491 Electric Dairy van 'N.C.B.'. Excellent plus/boxed. Cream and red version. From a beautiful, single-owner collection, some 25 years in the making.
Notes
This collector wanted only the best examples in his collection ? always a discerning buyer of the finest examples he could find. After over 25 years, he has now decided to part with items from his own extensive collection.
This is one of them.
An all-original example of the Electric Dairy Van – a shining cream finish, perfect ‘NCB’ lettering picked out in red, and matching red ridged wheels and chassis.
Shiny metal parts including axle ends. Smooth original tyres (occasional minor flat spot).
Three little chips at roof edge on one side.
The plain yellow card box is clean and strongly-coloured. Correct colour spot at the end flaps. Minor ink blot on one side. Very minor wear besides.
