Leyland Octopus Flat Truck with chains by Dinky Toys, No. 935. Scarce green and pale grey version. Near mint plus/boxed. From Boris's Collection.
Notes
Typically one of the last models to be added to a Dinky commercial collection, so not an easy find!
Issued between 1964-66.
Lustrous paint finish in green and pale grey with red plastic wheels. Riveted back. Straight posts, original chain. As-new original radial tyres (save for one which has a very small part-slit).
A few minor marks to the paint finish.
The colourful picture box is complete, clean and vividly-coloured. Version with lemon base ( harder to find). Light age/handling wear.
No graffiti.
A high profile Dinky commercial truck in all original, very close to mint condition.
