D492
Dinky 492 Election Mini Van 'Vote For Somebody'. Very near mint/boxed. From a most knowledgeable and enthusiastic collector in South London.
Notes
Not an easy model to find in any condition – and this boxed example is one of the nicest we have seen.
A few little marks around one headlight, another at the raised centre line on the bonnet, and a little casting mark. As-made, since the model is still firmly fixed to the inner card plinth. Complete, clean ‘Vote For Somebody’ labels on both sides and suspension on shaped spun wheels. Complete with figure, cable and microphone. Not often found complete!
The card plinth has a little wear (a repaired tear and the occasional crumple). Both yellow plastic fixing tags are in place underneath securing the model to the roadway.
The card and plastic over sleeve (fragile, so neary always damaged) has intact card although the cellophane has been replaced. Puncture to one end of the card.
Issued during 1964 only.
