Dinky 432

Notes

This is a scarce and original issue from 1957 (Dinky stamp inside the box lid). This rare version has a vivid cherry red cab and chassis, mid blue back, mid-blue ridged hubs. Large painted hook. Second type cab so this model has triangular lugs at either side of the front number plate. Pleasing lustre. Usual little scuff at the tow hook and a few little marks besides. Under magnification a curious stray dab of lighter blue paint can be seen at a rear corner edge.
So rare to find in any condition! Bright silver radiator and lights. Complete with spare wheel.
Marked Dinky Toys on the base.

Well-shaped original tyres.

The yellow and blue lift-off lid box is strongly-coloured, clean and complete. Hudson Dobson (U.S. export) label on the lid (starting to peel now, but all complete). Tarnished staples now. Minor age/handling wear. Period ’DENZY’S NEW YORK 32nd STREET’ price label at one lid end.
Original card packing piece is included.
