Notes

The first Supertoys aircraft in spectacular, fresh condition, issued between 1947-49. Surely one of the best surviving examples of this substantial aeroplane which has a gleaming bright, all original finish, complete with all four propellors and both delicate floats intact. An unused item and a rare find in this condition:

D701x1191

D701x1192

D701x1193

D701x1194

D701x1197

As fine an example as you will find, particularly bearing in mind both its age and scarcity. The most minor rub may be seen under especially critical scrutiny. An impressive item on display, especially alongside the card box which has such a fresh and bright paper label (couple of very small scuffs). The box comes complete with its packing piece which has definitely protected the delicate parts of this craft for the past sixty or so years.

D701x1196

Side paper label is clean and bright too with a lightly pencilled period price.

D701x1195

No tears or repairs to the card box – the card itself is rather age darkened now.
A magnificent addition to any Dinky collection!
