Notes
What an impressive Dinky military set! This military piece has an original matt military green finish, bright winding handle, with a complete and intact missile (and that includes the rubber nose). This is the second issue with plastic (as opposed to metal) cogs in the mechanism which raise and lower the missile well.
A splendid display piece!
Occasional very minor mark only (hard to find this good!).
Missile Launching Pad is in fine condition with just the near-inevitable paint loss at the tow ring.
The striped Supertoys box is complete, clean and bright with minimal wear, no splits or graffiti. Looks very fresh and clean. Remains of the old tape which kept the lid closed.
Inside the box, you will find the bright and fresh yellow packing piece in which the models sit (no tears), as well as the often missing top packing piece.
Bright clean and complete Instruction Leaflet is included. Quality Control Tag is still present.
Dinky stamp inside the box lid dates this particular example from 1960.
A very fine set, well-suited to become the centre piece of a military display.
