Notes
This is a very difficult version of this familiar Dinky Refuse Wagon to find finished in tan with green tinplate shutters and matching green ridged wheels. Well-shaped, black treaded tyres. Version without window glazing.
Very close to mint paint finish & minor marking on the gloss base.
The correct lighter yellow pictorial box is complete. No graffiti. Couple of very small repaired handling tears.
With card packing ring.
Green wheels are more often found on the orange cab issue of this Refuse Wagon.
