Notes
Issued between 1959-61 with a type 3 Leyland grille, this classic Dinky bus presents well with a lustrous original deep green and cream paint finish, lighter green wheels and well-shaped, knobbly tyres. Complete lettering on both sides – earlier issue so DUNLOP lettering is in upright print.
Occasional little mark to the paint finish.
The attractive pictorial box is crisp, clean and so brightly-coloured. All end flaps are complete. Couple of tiny tears. Light wear.
Correct colour spot at the end flaps.
