Notes
This collection is a sheer pleasure to handle, carefully compiled by an exacting collector.
In outstanding, fresh condition, this is an early issue of this Dinky classic (1954-60) in fawn and green finish with tinplate shutters. Early issue without window glazing. Such a gleaming paint finish!
Looks like unsold old shop stock.
One little mark on a cab window edge and a couple of mere dots on one of the green tinplate shutters.
Very crisp, bright and fresh pictorial box. Partially erased pencilled shopkeeper’s price on one box face and at an end flap. Little start of a corner edge tear. Slight creasing to the tuck-in part of one large end flap.
