D948
Dinky 948 Tractor-Trailer McLean. Near mint/boxed. From The Central Netherlands Collection.
Notes
Issued between 1961-67, this Dinky commercial truck has a vivid red cab, red plastic hubs and a grey back. Barely a mark to the paint finish, apart from the notable (and inevitable) wear at the coupling area.
The rear opening doors on these models are especially prone to damage – this example has excellent and complete rear doors! Detailed McLean transfers on both cab sides are perfect. Indeed, all McLean labels throughout are very near mint-mint (tiny edge rubbing to one).
Note that both rear doors open and shut well.
A little uniform age discolouration to the grey back (slightly yellowed now ).
The Supertoys box is bright and complete with no splits. Grubby mark or two and light wear. Deep blue lower half has barely any wear at all.
