D435
Dinky 435 Bedford TK Tipper. Near mint/boxed. Rare issue with packing card piece. From a large private European collection.
Notes
Many colour variations of this model exist. Made between 1964-71. This issue is certainly a rare find in this colour finish: very pale grey cab, mid blue roof, red plastic wheels, deep orange back, silver chassis.
In close to perfect condition with a couple of small marks. Upon the most minute scrutiny, however, an area of the front of the cab has been given a lick of well-matched very pale grey paint (hard to notice). Comes complete with card insert.
The colourful pictorial box is very bright, clean and fresh-looking with a shop label on one picture side. Small end tear and one side of the box is sunfaded now.
Not an easy find.
