Notes
Few were made of this promotional model for the Dutch road construction company ‘NWM’ in the late 1960’s.
The impressive Dinky Tanker from the French Dinky factory was made between 1963-71. This Code 3 issue however has a deepest green finish with a silver tank and complete ‘NWM’ labels on both sides of the cab, lettering and logo on both sides of the tank. Matching deep green painted plastic wheels.
With battery-operated headlights (unchecked).
Some edge rubbing to the cab and more marking (understandably) where the cab and trailer are hitched. Few marks besides.
The eye-catching pictorial box is bright and clean. Very colourful, complete over-label ‘NWM’. Light wear only to the box.
With lower card packing piece and ‘AIR BP’ Instruction Leaflet.
