Dinky Toys 252 Refuse Wagon
Bedford Refuse Wagon by Dinky Toys, No. 252. Orange & grey - scarce transition issue with green TINPLATE SHUTTERS & SILVER RADIATOR & HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY. GREEN CAST wheels - very scarce. Very near mint/boxed. From The Reference Collection.
Notes
This rare transition issue is finished in a vibrant and all original orange and pale grey with green tinplate shutters, bright silver radiator and headlight assembly, green cast wheels, glossy black baseplate, (minor marking) window glazing. In very close to perfect condition. Bright winding handle works well.
Usually, this model is found with green plastic shutters, silver radiator and headlight assembly and red plastic wheels (still a difficult find!).
Occasional minor mark.
The later, lighter yellow card box is complete, showing a little minor age/handling wear. Notably puncture-free!
