Notes
Issued during 1959 only, this is one of the harder-to-find advertising vans made by Dinky during this period. This Morris van has a pleasing original finish in two-tone blue with mid-blue wheels. The distinctive “Have a Capstan” transfers are virtually complete on one side, complete on the other.
Bright and very early Dinky 260 Royal Mail Van base and the smooth original tyres are well-shaped.
Very near mint condition. Presents so well.
The pictorial card box is complete and bright, showing light wear, including a little grubbiness. Crisp feel to the intact card.
