Notes
A classic sought-after Dinky Studebaker Tanker (early issue 1954-58) in all original condition with a lustrous and unfaded paint finish.
Bright base (minor ‘spidering’) and well-formed original smooth black tyres.
Complete ‘Mobilgas’ lettering and the delicate detailed transfer at the rear is intact too.
Small mark to one of the silver domes on the roof (nearly always found with much more rubbing).
Minor casting mark on one side. Occasional negligible dot to the paint finish.
The pictorial card box is complete. One end flap is a touch sunfaded now. LIght stain and minor grubbiness. Minor age wear besides.
