Notes
A little more unusual in this presentation with the ramp included – earlier issues did not include a ramp which was available separately.
This particular issue has a mid blue cab and hubs, with a paler blue back including the decks. Complete ‘DINKY TOYS DELIVERY SERVICE’ lettering on both sides and back. Large baseplate print with 982 stamped on the trailer. The sheen on this model shows that it has been handled only occasionally. Smooth original tyres run well.
Usual marks around the hinged ramp which are practically unavoidable. Hard to find a mark otherwise.
The ‘Dinky Supertoys’ striped box is the slightly wider version, since it does contain the ramp (printed on the box too). It is complete, clean and bright, with no tears or graffiti. Corner scuff and light wear besides.
Deep blue card packing wedge included:
Dinky 794 Loading Ramp is in virtually mint condition, and the yellow card end flap style box is still present too (lacks one of the tiny internal end flaps – usually none of these internal end flaps remain – they are so small and the edge of the ramp can easily break them off as it is slid out).
