Notes
Every Dinky collector remembers these! A well-loved Dinky classic that will surely bring back happy memories. An early issue made during the mid 1950’s. This Elevator Loader has a bright yellow and mid-blue finish with the original intact supple black rubber conveyor belt (so often these suffer over the years becoming brittle and breaking). Blue metal wheels.
A few small marks to the paint finish. Nice to see that this example comes with the detachable plate which fits at the end of the hopper (often missing). Fine sheen to the paint finish. Winding handle with brass cuff. Note the black step-plate at the side and the black metal levers too.
Hard to find box version has retained its colour vibrancy. Complete clean paper labels. Light age wear/edge rubs to the violet blue card. All packing pieces are present.
This popular models cost typically a whopping 22/4 shillings- at the time, significantly more than the Fodens etc. of the same era.
