Notes
A classic Dinky military model first made in 1954 – up until 1970 – and an essential component in your Dinky military collection. This particular version has a gloss military green finish, and a more difficult find with a rivetted matte black base. Metal rollers.
Complete with supple tracks, military markings and a swivelling turret with a straight gun.
In virtually mint condition.
The tank is presented in the later issue pictorial scene box with lift-off lid (later still an end flap box would be used).
Bright and fresh showing minimal wear. Shiny staples. Period penned date on the lid (small print) and Christmas wished written neatly on the underside of the box base. Notably, the card packing piece is still present.
A welcome addition to any Dinky military collection.
