Notes

This classic early Foden truck has such a fine rich brown finish, with a silver flash and black chassis, black original herringbone tyres (well-shaped). Correct that this early issue has no tow hook.
Presents very well indeed. Issued between 1947-48. This high profile classic Dinky impresses with its rich brown glossy colour.
Base is complete with spare wheel affixed.
Very close to mint.
