Dinky 252
Dinky 252 Refuse Wagon. Orange & grey - scarce transition issue with green TINPLATE SHUTTERS & SILVER RADIATOR & HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY. Green cast wheels. Very near mint/boxed. From The Berlin Collection.
Notes
This rare transition issue is finished in a vibrant and all original orange and pale grey with green tinplate shutters, bright silver radiator and headlight assembly, green cast wheels, glossy black baseplate, window glazing.

In close to perfect condition. Bright shiny winding handle works well. Closest scrutiny reveals a couple of touch-ins on the roof. Little handling mark on one of the green shutters.
Usually, this model is found with green plastic shutters, silver radiator and headlight assembly and red plastic wheels (still a difficult find!).
The colourful picture box is complete, with quite a crisp feel. Light wear/grubbiness only. Notably puncture-free!
