Dinky 514 Guy Van "SLUMBERLAND". Near mint/boxed. From 'The New European' Collection.
Notes
Issued between 1950-52, this model has a vivid red lustrous original paint finish with perfect -very nearly perfect detailed transfers on both sides and above the cab roof.
Presents well:
The occasional little mark as you might expect at wheel arches. Little extra (later) dab of well-matched paint at the rear door handles and a little dab on one side (very hard to notice). Chip at a wheel arch head-on. Small rubbed area above the Royal Crest on one side.
Base is bright. Well-shaped tyres.
The early powder blue box has a a complete, clean paper label. Some sunfading to the powder blue finish of the lid, mostly on one side. Little corner edge crumple. Minor wear besides.
