Notes
Issued between 1954-59 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, well-shaped tyres. Complete lettering on both sides – earlier issue so DUNLOP lettering is in upright print. Note correct that this early issue does not have a roof box either.
Occasional mere dot if you want to find fault.
The attractive pictorial box is crisp and brightly-coloured. Lightest wear.
Correct colour spot at the end flaps.
