D465
Dinky 465 Morris Commercial Van "CAPSTAN". Very, very near mint/boxed. From the Italian collection.
Notes
Issued during 1959 only, this is one of the harder-to-find advertising vans made by Dinky during this period. In all original, very close to mint condition with perfect “Have a Capstan” transfers on both sides. This Morris van has a two-tone blue paint finish with mid blue wheels.
In exceptional condition.
The most minute scrutiny reveals a few mere dots to the paint finish. Note that the paint has a little bubbling on one side in one area.
The pictorial card box is bright, clean and complete with a crisp feel to the card. Small fleck of surface removal on the box underside and the remains of a label at an end flap.
