Notes
Issued between 1958-63 and comprises Dinky Supertoys 984 and 985, this is a most impressive set for your collection in all original, ex-shop stock condition. This two part set has a vivid bright shining finish, and extremely bright metal parts throughout. Surely one of the best surviving examples:
The Car Carrier has a few tiny marks and the trailer is mint. Never seen better!
The “DINKY AUTO SERVICE” lettering is perfect on both sides of both models. The top deck of the car carrier can be raised and lowered by turning the handle at the side – this works well. Eight Dinky cars can be accommodated on the carrier and trailer. What a great display piece in your collection!
The very large box is a fitting partner. Such a large card box nearly always sustains wear at corners etc. – this is the best example we have seen. No wear at corners or indeed anywhere else. Looking like old-shop stock:
Notably, it comes complete with a large inner card packing piece as well as three thicker card wedges (original) which secure the items in place.
A lovely, lovely set – and you will not find better!
