Notes
This collector wanted only the best examples in his collection – always a discerning buyer of the finest examples he could find. After over 25 years, he has now decided to part with items from his own extensive collection.
This is one of them.
This heavyweight Dinky model has a shiny pale lemon finish with intact smooth running original tracks, sleek matte baseplate and blue plastic driver. Looks unused with an all-original paint finish. Presents very nicely, giving the impression of unsold, old shop stock.
Working mechanism for raising and lowering the pale grey blade.
If you want to fault it, you will find a couple of (probably as-made) small marks.
The striped Supertoys box is bright and clean, with no splits or graffiti. Very minor wear and a very small area of surface loss at one short lid end. Rusty staples now. Comes with the lower packing piece.
