Notes
Unsold old shop stock item. Never opened. Assumed mint and complete with all components.
What a delightful accessory from Dinky!
Issued between 1960-64, this Service Station makes a superb display piece.
Finished in attractive blue, red and cream with ‘DINKY TOYS SERVICE STATION’ in bright print.
The sturdy outer box is deeply-coloured, clean and complete. The original flimsy cellophane over-wrap is intact although note that at some the glue seam of the cellophane has dried out so a small piece of blue tape was added to keep the two pieces in place.
Instructions for assembly will be printed on the inside of the lid.
