Notes
A classic Dinky agricultural pairing presented in the early dual-numbered box. Issued during 1954.
a) D300 Massey-Harris Tractor in vivid cherry red and yellow finish with metal wheels. Complete with both metal stacks, steering wheel and driver. Few little marks at front exposed edges. Obviously barely handled and carefully stored, with bright metal parts and a gleaming original paint finish throughout.
b) D324 Hay Rake in matching colours with nicely shaped undamaged metal combs. In near mint condition with barely a mark.
The scarce dual-numbered early issue box is bright and clean with no splits or graffiti.
Lower packing piece is clean and has only minor wear at one wheel slot. Note the dual-numbering for both 27AK and 310 on box lid end as well as the LF label (lead free). Rubbing to the Dinky number on the box lid face and a small area of hard to notice surface removal at one lid end. Lovely additional period touch – this set comes with the original little Quality Control ‘Tested’ Tag (not pictured).
