Dinky Toys 450 Bedford Box Van 'CASTROL'
Bedford T.K. Box Van 'CASTROL' by Dinky Toys, No. 450. Matte black base. Bright clean 'CASTROL' labels. Very near mint/boxed. From The Cologne Collection.
Notes
Issued between 1965-70. In metallic emerald green finish, with white shutter doors, red plastic hubs, red interior. Nice to see that the “CASTROL” labels at the sides and behind the cab roof are looking so bright and fresh (with none of the usual age transparency which seems to plague these models).
Occasional minor mark to the paint finish.
The colourful and detailed picture box is brightly-coloured, clean and complete. No splits or repairs. Minor age/handling wear and a little pencilled writing on the box base.
