Notes
Issued between 1954-56 this is one of the most memorable advertising vans from Dinky’s heyday.
One of the best examples you will ever see – this Spratts Guy Van is in very close to mint condition. Complete eye-catching transfers on both sides with the letters forming the shape of a dog.
A wonderful display piece.
Hard to find a mark anywhere – minute scrutiny finds a couple of very small touch-ins. Most would not see them.
The box is such a fine example too – with rich lustrous deeply-coloured card. Lightest wear.
