Notes
Issued between 1959-61 with a type 3 Leyland grille, this classic Dinky bus presents so well with a lustrous deep green and cream paint finish, lighter green wheels and smooth black tyres (one has a faint flat spot). Complete lettering on both sides – earlier issue so DUNLOP lettering is in upright print.
Hard to find a mark although minute scrutiny finds a couple of dot touch-ins.
The attractive pictorial box is very crisp, clean and so brightly-coloured. Very close to old shop stock quality.
Correct colour spot at the end flaps.
