Dinky Toys 582 Pullmore Car Transporter
Pullmore Car Transporter by Dinky Toys, No. 582. Near mint plus/boxed (wear). Rare *SIX RIVET* issue made for a short time only during 1953! From The Reference Collection.
Notes
This Pullmore Car Transporter was made for such a short time with six rivets (usual version has four) during 1953. This example is in all original condition with a light blue cab and chassis, mid-blue wheels, dark fawn decks. Black radiator and bumper. Complete ‘Dinky Toys Delivery Service’ on both sides and at the rear. Usual little marks where metal meets metal, and the occasional little mark besides. Presents well with a pleasing lustre.
Correct early 582 box is complete with no splits if looking rather worn now with some age/handling wear. A couple of small areas of surface paper loss on the inside surface of the box lid. Period price label.
A difficult find!
