Notes
Early issue with "PUT A TIGER In YOUR TANK " logo at rear of vehicle. In complete and original condition with bright jewelled headlights, both hosepipes and all six grey manhole covers intact.
There are a couple of little chips at one top edge of the raised roof detail on the tank and a couple of small marks besides (minor). Slight fading to one of the Esso paper labels but all labels are complete and intact.
The attractive end flap picture box is a rare find in this condition, and generally more desirable than the later bubble pack issues. Such bright clean crisp card, this box looks very close to shop-fresh with just a couple of light creases. Tiny crumple at one end and a shopkeepers pencilled price at an end flap and a little pen writing at another (easily overlooked).
A grrreat item to add to your Dinky commercial collection!
