Notes

Made from the original Dinky tooling for the Leyland Octopus Tanker (see base). Just like Nicky/Dinky toys in this respect. From Calcutta India.
Finished in vivid yellow with grey plastic wheels and deep blue window glazing. ‘Leyland Octopus – A Milton Product’ on the base. Well-shaped treaded tyres including the spare.
Plastic tanker in yellow and white has very nearly complete ’BURMAH-SHELL" labels and logo on both sides as well as SHELL logo at the rear. Intact tow hook. Jewelled headlights. Screwed base. Occasional tiny mark to the paint finish.
