D914
Dinky 914 AEC Articulated Lorry 'British Road Services'. Very near mint/boxed. A scarce find in the WINDOW BOX.
Notes
A barely handled example of this classic Dinky truck made between 1965-70. The vivid red and palest grey finish is all original throughout. Bright jewelled headlights, perfect ‘British Road Services’ lettering above the cab. The paper labels on both doors are complete and bright.
Just the usual unavoidable paint scuffing where the trailer attaches to the cab (invisible until detached).
There are just a couple of marks to one wheel arch (minor). Mere dot or two besides. Bright clean plastic detachable tilt.
The unusual export box presentation has fared as well as you might expect – especially considering the weight of this model and the flimsy nature of this kind of box. The original cellophane is clear and has a couple of small splits. Bright fresh colours throughout and none of the usual tearing at the ends which pull out.
A little careless tape removal at one end has left a small area of surface removal.
