Notes
This heavyweight Dinky model has a shiny pale lemon finish with intact smooth running original tracks, bright baseplate and fawn driver.
Most unusual find wiht a deep grey blade (as in the French Dinky 855 version):
Working mechanism for raising and lowering the blade.
There are a few little marks at exposed edges etc. but still an attractive example in complete and functioning condition.

Dinky stamp on the inside surface of the lid dates this model, exported to the U.S. from February 1958. Note the early U.S. Hudson Dobson (New Jersey) export label in red:
