Notes
Made from the original Dinky tooling for the Leyland Octopus Tanker (see base). Just like Nicky/Dinky toys in this respect. From Calcutta India.
Finished in ice white with grey plastic wheels and deep blue window glazing. ‘Leyland Octopus – A Milton Product’ on the base. Well-shaped treaded tyres including the spare.
Plastic tanker in deep blue and white has complete ’CALTEX" labels and logo on both sides as well as circular CALTEX logo at the rear. Intact tow hook. Jewelled headlights. Screwed base. Light wear and a flake of paint at a front wheel arch.
Distinctive card box has typical wear (comparatively flimsy). Some wear and tear, but all complete.
Rare to come to the market-place.
