Dinky Toys 253 Daimler Ambulance
Daimler Ambulance by Dinky Toys, No. 253. Very near mint/boxed. Scarce matte white issue without glazing. Red metal wheels. From Boris's Collection.
Notes
A classic Dinky toy issued between 1960-6. This version has a fresh original matte white finish with red metal wheels and so a transition issue without window glazing. In very close to mint condition.
A mere micro-dot or tow to this most unforgiving of (all original) paint finishes. Shiny base and fine original (treaded) tyres.
The yellow picture box is bright and complete with all end flaps. Period pencilled price on an end flap. Crisp feel. A little grubby, showing light handling wear.
Not an easy issue to find.
