Notes
This classic Dinky commercial has a mid-blue cab and chassis, with a deep orange-yellow back and yellow wheels. More unusual colour finish.
A striking example in all original condition that has the occasional small mark and some polish residue in some of the crevices (can be removed). Original grey tyres are a pleasing true grey colour (have not yellowed with age) and are well-shaped.
The complete yellow picture box is brightly coloured. Note that one side of the box has has a curious colour finish illustration to the model – we have seen this a couple of times before. Original period price label. No splits or graffiti. Tarnished staples. Minor wear.
