Upon careful scrutiny of the van, there are the usual little chips at wheel arches/body line and the occasional minute scratch/mark besides. Shiny baseplate and metal parts. Rear doors open and close well.
The box is complete and bright with no splits.

A litle rubbing at corners and there is a crease to the box base. Faint crayon marking to one side of the lid. Some notable shelf rubbing to the underside of the box base. Dinky stamp inside the box lid dates this particular example from 1955.
A cherished item from Dinky’s heyday!
