D581
Dinky 581 Horse Box. GREY TYRES issue. Near mint/boxed. From The Central Netherlands Collection.
Notes
This classic Dinky model is in close to mint condition with a bright and shining maroon body cast in aluminium. All original condition throughout.
Complete “EXPRESS HORSE BOX HIRE SERVICE” lettering on both sides. The “BRITISH RAILWAYS” sign above the cab and at both sides are complete, too.
20 mph sign is in place on the hinged rear ramp.
Just a couple of factory retouches (very hard to find) and the occasional small mark besides.
The early deep blue box with a picture label impresses with vibrant, unfaded colours and the paper label is complete. No splits, repairs or graffiti. Three-piece paper label rather than the later issue with one wrap-around paper label.
