Notes
One of the weightiest Dinky Trucks around. This is a superb example, measuring over 18cms long x 10cms wide approx. including the tipping lever.
This Aveling Barford Centaur Dump Truck is in all original, very close to mint condition.
A more difficult find in this deep yellow and red colour finish.
Presents well. Complete lettering on both sides. Tipping action works very well (simulated hydraulic action which would surely never pass safety regulations nowadays!).
Comes with inner wrap-around card packing piece and original pale blue card packing ring and Informative Slip.
Box is notably colourful and crisp with all end flaps intact. Small puncture has pressed back into place.
Light wear.
