Notes

Issued between 1958-59 only. This scarce model has a vibrant red cab and chassis and a bright yellow back. More commonly found with the ‘Bean Can’ transfers, this rarer version has the all-important ‘Sauce Bottle’ transfers virtually complete on both sides:

Bright baseplate (minor ‘spidering’):

Some marking to the all original paint finish.
Original grey radial tyres are well-shaped.
The rare plain striped Supertoy box is bright and clean. Note the deep blue base is probably from a different Dinky commercial since it is not quite deep enough for this box lid.
Minor age/handling wear.
