Notes
It is such a delight to come upon these very early Dinky Delivery Vans and this one is in all original condition with superb gold lettering on both sides. All sound and intact with no parts broken or missing. These early vans made of lead composition do not suffer from the fatigue often found in the later second and third type vans.
This commercial Dinky was made for such a short time – between 1934-35 – so it is especially sought in this condition. All original throughout with an intense and rich deep elm green pigment, complemented by virtually complete glistening gold lettering on both sides and green-washed wheels.
A beautiful, nostalgic piece.
Marking at front wheel arches. Barely any marks besides. Radiator surround has some rusting but all complete. Intact axles.
_A delight to own – these early advertising vans are in extremely short supply! _
