Notes
A scarce and quite beautiful early Dinky commercial Foden! This is a very fine example of this 1st type Foden in all original condition in the correct early box.
With a gleaming deep green original finish, bright baseplate, silver flash, 1st type cab, no hook, and fine tread radial tyres.
This truck has been carefully stored for some fifty+ years – certainly never played-with!
Occasional small mark only. Intact 20 mph transfer is still in place at the rear wheel arch.
The corrrect early buff card box has a complete and deeply-coloured paper label. No splits or repairs, although a little creased. A little of the usual rusting at staples. Minor age wear/grubiness only. Meccano quality control stamp on the box base underside.
