Dinky 253
Dinky 253 Daimler Ambulance. Very near mint/boxed. Scarce matte white issue with red metal wheels. From The West MIdlands Collection.
Notes
A classic Dinky toy issued between 1960-6. This version has a fresh original matte white finish with red metal wheels and window glazing. In very close to mint condition.
A mere micro-dot or tow to this most unforgiving of (all original) paint finishes. Shiny base and fine original (treaded) tyres.
The correct later pale yellow box is fresh, crisp bright and complete with all end flaps. Period pencilled price on an end flap.
Not an easy issue to find and an impressive example.
