Notes
A little more unusual in this presentation with the ramp included – earlier issues did not include a ramp which was available separately.
This particular issue has a mid blue cab and hubs, with a paler blue back including the decks. More unusual issue with window glazing. Superb, perfect “DINKY TOYS DELIVERY SERVICE” lettering on sides and back.
The sheen on this model shows that it has been handled only occasionally. A few of the usual marks around the hinged ramp and the occasional little mark besides. The cab itself is virtually mint! Presents well. Bright shiny ‘Dinky Supertoys’ baseplate with 982 stamped.
The box is the slightly wider version since it does contain the Dinky 794 ramp (still in its card sleeve). Scarcely a mark although the underside of the ramp has a few discoloured patches.
Correct that this box has italicised ‘Dinky Supertoys’ lettering and pictures the model with the darker blue cab. Also note that the informative print includes mention of the loading ramp.
The box is In excellent condition with a little handling/age wear at edges. But crucially, no splits or graffiti. No punctures either. Deep blue base is especially nice with no sunfading and hardly any wear at all.
A very pleasing example all round.
