Dinky Toys 62W Imperial Airways Liner 'FROBISHER'
Imperial Airways Liner 'FROBISHER' by Dinky Toys, No. 62W. Near mint plus/boxed, with leaflet. Scarce. From The Island Collection.
Notes
Issued during 1939, this Imperial Airways Liner ‘Frobisher’ has survived very well. Sleek silver finish with all four red propellors in place and complete ‘G-A FDI’ lettering on the wings in black. Gliding hole with pin.
Notably, the delicate ‘FROBISHER’ transfer is virtually complete – complete on both sides.
Very minor wear to the paint finish. Complete and sturdy powder blue lift-off lid box has no tears or repairs. A little marking, grubbiness and fading, as one might expect. Dated 1 – 39.
