Dinky 255
Dinky 255 Mersey Tunnel Police Van. Very near mint/boxed. From the personal collection of a professional TV & Film Set Designer.
Notes
With a vivid, all original red finish, this desirable Land-Rover model was made between 1955-61.
Gloss red finish (no sunfading) is an impressive example. ‘Mersey Tunnel’ lettering is crisp on both sides as are the ‘Police’ labels with a black background on the cab roof (tiny edge nick to the front facing label).
Bright base and well-shaped, smooth original tyres.
Mere dot or two to the paint finish.
The box is brightly-coloured and complete. Light wear and a little storage grubbiness.
