D917
Dinky 917 Mercedes Truck & Trailer. Very near mint/boxed. Very scarce version in BLUE & YELLOW, with WHITE roof ventilator.
Notes
Seeking out the unusual variations, the East Anglian Collector of Dinky and Corgi models may have items to fill some of the gaps in your collection. We are pleased to bring this collection to the market place.
This colour version is an especially difficult find. Vivid mid-blue cab and chassis with white roof ventilator, yellow back with blue plastic tilts. Red interior, jewelled headlights.
In very close to mint condition. Obviously unused and carefully stored, this model comes with both wing mirrors intact. Jewelled lights.
The large truck and trailer sits within a most attractive card plinth with pictorial backdrop. Given the weight of the items, it is rare to find one in this close to pristine condition!
The large card outer box has fared quite well too, although there is a small surface repaired tear at a non-picture side and a tear to the tuck-in part of both large end flaps.
Polystyrene packing wedges are still present.
The first we have offered for sale in this colour finish for a very long time.
