Notes
Issued between 1958-63 and comprises Dinky Supertoys 984 and 985, this is an impressive set for your collection in all original condition. This two-part set has a vivid bright shining finish.
1) Dinky 884 Car Carrier with complete “DINKY AUTO SERVICE” lettering on both sides. The top deck of the car carrier can be raised and lowered by turning the handle at the side – this works well. Eight Dinky cars can be accommodated on the carrier and trailer. What a great display piece in your collection!
Some near-inevitable little chips to some exposed areas, moving metal parts. The winding handle cuff is tarnished too. Overall, excellent plus state.
2) Dinky 985 Trailer with complete “DINKY AUTO SERVICE” lettering on both sides. Vivid red finish and minimal marking. Very near mint state.
The very large box is clean, bright and fresh-looking. Such a large card box nearly always sustains wear at corners etc. – this example has lightest wear.
Inside are *3 thick card packing wedges (but 2 shaped x right hand and one middle section shape) as well as the upper card packing piece which secure the items in place (few small tears due to model movement).
