Dinky Toys 465 Morris Van 'CAPSTAN'
Morris Commercial Van "CAPSTAN" by Dinky Toys, No. 465. Very near mint/boxed. From The Fenman Collection.
Notes
Issued during 1959 only, this is one of the harder-to-find advertising vans made by Dinky during this period. This Morris van has a pleasing original finish in two-tone blue with mid-blue wheels. The distinctive “Have a Capstan” transfers are complete on one side, small nick to the other side.
Bright base and the smooth original tyres are well-shaped.
Tiny wheel arch rub if you are looking to fault it.
The pictorial card box is complete, fresh, tear-free and clean. Really crisp with resistant end flaps, showing minimal handling over the years.
