Notes
This Dinky Diesel Roller fiished in vibrant orange with green wheels was made between 1965-71.
Complete ‘Master Pavior’ labels on both sides and delicate paper logo on the front.
Lots of features on this model:
Tilting and rotating front roller, cab has windows which slide open, grey plastic engine covers may be lifted for inspection – this model even makes a ‘ticking’ noise when pushed along!
A little grubbiness/paint blemish on the nose of the vehicle and the occasional little mark at an exposed edge.
Vividly-coloured card pictorial box is bright and complete. Minor storage grubbiness and a few minor creases/ruffles. Old shop price label at one side.
