Dinky 490
Dinky 30V/490 Electric Dairy Van 'Express Dairy'. Very near mint/boxed. LIGHT GREY with blue flatbed and wheels. From 1954. From The West Midlands Collection.
Notes
This Dinky model in light grey was issued during 1954-and marks the transition in this dual-numbered box from the earlier 30v numbering to 490.
A fine sheen to the paint finish with perfect ‘EXPRESS DAIRY’ lettering and as-new original treaded tyres.
Just a couple of very minor marks away from mint.
The dual-numbered box is complete with all end flaps and the correct colour spot. Crisp feel. A little wear includes a couple of minute end flap seam tears.
