Dinky 255
Dinky 255 Mersey Tunnel Police Van. Very near mint/boxed. From The Cumbrian Collection.
Notes
With a vivid, all original red finish, this desirable Land-Rover model was made between 1955-61.
Gloss red finish (no sunfading) is an impressive example. ‘Mersey Tunnel’ lettering is crisp on both sides as are the ‘Police’ labels with a black background on the cab roof.
Note the tiny portion of additional (factory) transfer on one side of the model. May be possible to remove (with care).
Bright base and well-shaped original tyres.
The box is brightly-coloured and complete. Small edge scuff and light wear.
