Dinky 414 Rear Tipping Wagon. Blue and grey version with SILVER CAST GROOVED WHEELS. Very near mint/boxed. Correct box. Rare to come to the market place.
Notes
This collector wanted only the best examples in his collection ? always a discerning buyer of the finest examples he could find. After over 25 years, he has now decided to part with items from his own extensive collection.
This is one of them.
This is a stunning example of the Dodge Rear Tipping Wagon in very close to mint condition, finished in light blue & grey with a tipping back – but with SILVER GROOVED CAST WHEELS. The wheels are the same as seen on the rare variation of the Dinky 182 Porsche model (in bright red, in our archive).
Exceptional, old shop stock quality, this Dodge Tipping Wagon has an outstanding lustre to the paint finish and a shiny baseplate (couple of small light scratches). As-new original tyres.
Little factory assembly paint chip on the underside. Tiny dot at the rear.
The later (so lighter) yellow picture box is crisp and clean with exceedingly vivid colours. Correct Dinky blue spot at the end flaps. No tears or graffiti. Fresh, crisp feel. Period price label (export) at an end flap. Faint staining in one area on one side. Tiny wear besides.
A wonderful investment piece and a joy to own.
