Notes
A classic Dinky advertising van made between 1955-58. This model is precisely dated November 1955 from the Dinky stamp inside the lid.
This colourful iconic Dinky Toy makes a beautiful display piece!
Notably, the distinctive transfers are complete on both sides. Obviously, this model has been carefully handled and stored.
Hard to find a mark. It is only upn the most minute scrutiny, that a couple of small dots of extra paint may be seen at the rear door handles. Small (factory) paint bubble on the cab roof. A little minor rough casting on the cab at one side.
The scarce non-picture, striped box is complete and intact with no splits,tears or repairs. No graffiti either. Usual rubbing at edges and a little rustiness at the staples.
