D905
Dinky 905 Foden Flat Truck with Chains. Very near mint/boxed. Red & grey version. Scarce rivetted issue. With CARD PACKING piece. Another super Supertoy from The Heart of England Collection!
Notes
A beautiful example of a scarce red and pale grey Foden Lorry issued between 1957-64 with a rivet fixing (earlier issues had a bolt fixing).
This is an unused truck with only a few little marks at wheel arches and one on the petrol tank at the side which barely detract. All chain posts are straight and the chain is original. None of the usual marking to the chain post tops -this example just gleams! What an impressive Dinky classic on display!
Rounded chain post bosses and a bright fresh baseplate:
The striped Supertoys box is a fitting partner – bright and fresh with excellent strong colours.
Minor handling wear and a couple of ‘bruises’ or ‘almost punctures’ on the lid from the chain posts. Bright staples, unfaded colours including the vibrant blue box base. Traces of pricing at the box lid end.
Comes complete with the card packing piece.
Not an easy find in this condition. Gives the appearance of old shop stock.
