Notes
This Guy 4-Ton Lorry has a light tan cab and chassis, deep green back, paler green hubs. No window glazing on this early issue (1958-59). So fresh and bright with day-one original colours throughout. Barely a mark.
Tyres are well-shaped. Baseplate has minor tarnishing.
Complete and bright card box is difficult to find this good. Very light wear only. You can see why Dinky preferred to house their comparatively heavy commercials in the sturdier card boxes. However, this box has survived well with light handling wear including a few creases. No tears. Crisp.
This is the cream of the Dinky crop!
