Dinky 104
Dinky 104 Spectrum Pursuit Vehicle. Very, very near mint/boxed. 1st issue in card box with Instruction Leaflet & Firing Rocket. From The Exclusively Gerry Anderson Collection.
Notes
This Gerry Anderson model inspired by the t.v. series ‘Captain Scarlet & The Mysterons’ is in all original condition with no reproduced parts or repainting.
This early version has a fine, virtually mint metallic blue finish, with original figure of Captain Scarlet and firing front rocket. This example has one tiny nick to one of the transfers. Nice example with perfect black rubber tracks and aerials. Correct that this issue does not have a white cover on the roof button.
Note the side hatch does not close quite flush.
The brightly-coloured pictorial inner card plinth is an excellent backdrop for the model. Vivid fresh card has minor slot tearing due to the weight of the model.
Original Instruction Leaflet:
Large pictorial outer box is bright and complete. Tear to the always vulnerable tuck-in sections of the large end flaps (tape to one) and a couple of small internal end flap tears.
