D408
Dinky 408 Big Bedford Lorry. Harder to find mid-blue and orange-yellow version. Very near mint/boxed. Dated 1958. Fresh example from The Berlin Collection.
Notes
A very attractive, authentic example in the more unusual colour finish, i.e. mid blue cab and chassis, with deep orange-yellow back and yellow wheels. This fine Dinky toy has obviously spent most of its fifty five years or so in its day-one vivid box:
Occasional little mark at an exposed edge which barely detracts.
The fresh picture box is a very attractive example with such intense colours Nevertheless it has a storage seam split to the lid.
Dinky stamp inside the box lid dates this model precisely from June 1958.
Not an easy find in this condition – especially this more unusual colour issue.
