Notes
A scarce and early Gift Set from Dinky with great nostalgic British appeal! A rare find.
It comprises:
1) Dinky 42A Police Box with a deep blue finish with silver details. No crazing. An impressive example in very close to mint condition.
2) Dinky 42B Motorcycle Patrol is in excellent condition with peppering of chips, mostly at exposed edges/vulnerable points. Clean, original, white, solid rubber wheels are well-shaped.
3) Dinky 42C Point Duty Policeman in a white coat. Near mint.
4) Dinky 42D Point Duty Policeman in a blue uniform. Near mint.
Inner carded tray is fresh, bright and clean with no loss of colour vibrancy. A wonderful London scene backdrop for these items. Light wear and a very small scuff.
Attractive deep powder-blue lift-off lid box has moderate wear commensurate with age with rubbing/wear mostly at edges. No graffiti.
