D405
Dinky 405 Universal Jeep. Scarce late issue in red, red plastic wheels. Very near mint/boxed. From The Berlin Collection.
Notes
This scarce late issue has a vivid red finish and matching red plastic wheels (apart from the spare which is metal), bright, untarnished tinplate screen, black metal steering wheel.
Gloss baseplate. Couple of marks away from mint. This Jeep has an outstanding lustre. Day-one bright colours too.
The correct lighter yellow card box is clean and crisp. Colours are not particularly vibrant (but not as a result of fading, rather as-made. Sometimes late issue boxes have less intense colours). Minor age wear only and no serrated tag now. No graffiti.
