Dinky 501
Dinky 501 Foden Diesel 8 Wheel Wagon. Near mint plus/boxed. Scarce 2nd type issue. Two-tone blue version. From The Botany Bay Collection.
Notes
Made between 1952-54, this is the 2nd type cab version with no flash at cab sides. In violet blue finish with a paler blue back and matching hubs. Presents very nicely with a fresh and gleaming paint finish, and minor marking only to the paint finish.
Original condition:
Black radial tyres are well-shaped. Supertoy hubs.
Unfaded deep blue box has a complete paper label (note the repaired split at both short lid ends). Light wear.
A difficult find.
