Notes
Now here’s a rare Dinky commercial – so often missing from even the most extensive Dinky collections! The last version to be made for a short time in 1964, this truck has a deep blue cab and chassis with a light yellow band around the cab, light yellow back (rivetted) and red plastic wheels.
We stress that this is an original item throughout. So often, these high profile Dinky commercials are found with touch-ins. It is refreshing to see one in honest condition.
And with such a pleasing gloss to the finish too.
Shiny metal parts and that includes the axle ends and rivet.
Marking to the paint finish mostly at the top edges of the back.
The Supertoys box (with italicised print) is complete and bright. Light wear and a very small strip of surface loss at a short lid end.
A high profile, sought-after Dinky commercial truck!
