Notes
Extremely difficult version to find. This early commercial Dinky has a vibrant deep yellow and deepest blue finish. Small tow hook, ridged hubs.
Small raised casting mark on the roof (as-made), a scuff on one side of the flatbed and close scrutiny finds a couple of tiny wheel arch touch-ins.
The early buff box with a picture label is complete and bright. No seam splits and the card feels sturdy. Correct colour spot (daub of factory yellow) on the complete paper label at lid end.
Presents well – hard to find this good!
An eye-catching Dinky commercial.
