Dinky 410
Dinky 410 Bedford End Tipper. Blue and yellow issue, without window glazing. Very near mint/boxed. Fine item from The Rickman Collection.
Notes
This Bedford Tipper Truck has a very attractive mid-blue and yellow finish with nicely detailed original black and silver radiator and headlight assembly. A fine lustre and bright metal parts too. Working tipper function. Looks unused.
Issued between 1954-61 (and re-numbered from 25m). Few little dots to the front bumper.
Closest scrutiny finds a couple of extra dabs of yellow paint (factory) at a wheel arch and a roof edge. A small thin scratch on the base.
The more unusual red and yellow box is complete, bright and clean with excellent strong colours. Crisp feel. Barely any age wear at all and notably, this example is puncture-free!
An exceptional item which displays so well.
