Notes
This is a delightful classic Dinky Tanker finished in unfaded red with deep blue lettering and border (later issue would have lighter blue lettering and border).
Well-shaped smooth black tyres.
A fine display piece with a shining lustre and crisp lettering. Complete transfer on one side. Couple of tiny nicks to the deep blue border on the other side (visible if you peer closely). Some tarnishing to the base. Tiny rub to a couple of the silver roof details (usually more rubbing to this vulnerable area).
Couple of tiny marks to the all original paint finish.
The dual-numbered box is complete and strongly coloured. A little grubbiness and very minor wear.
