D511
Dinky 511 Guy 4-Ton Lorry. 1st Type. Fawn & red. Near mint/boxed. Scarce. From The Reference Collection.
Notes
An early commercial Dinky model, with a first type cab, original fawn cab and back, red chassis, small unpainted hook, 20 mph sign at rear. Red ridged wheels. Bolt fixing. Rear axle located beneath tin clips. DINKY SUPERTOYS on base. Issued between 1947-48 only.
Occasioanl tiny mark and under minute scrutiny a few little touch-ins may be found ( but you have to search for them). Still presents nicely.
The early buff box is really very good indeed – especially for this early type box: strong colours, no splits and complete labels throughout. Original colour spot at lid end too.
