Notes
What a wonderful sight! This is the original Dinky Trade Pack which enclosed all six promotional ’Job’s Dairy Vans’ in their original boxes! Inside all 6 boxed models are still present enclosed within their individual virtually pristine – pristine card boxes.
Six from only 1176 promotional models made during 1960. Beautiful cream paint finish and virtuallly complete – complete ’Job’s Dairy’ transfers front and back on each model. Paint finish is very close to mint- virtually mint! Note that a couple have a small (assumed factory) retouch.
It must be stressed that this is not a later ‘made-up’ set of vans – these are the originals and are each contained in vibrant crisp unfaded boxes, one has a little seam tear. Correct plain N.C.B. boxes. With colour spots on these boxes – some were issued with and some without, we surmise those toward the end of the production run were issued without.
The outer carton is complete and bright. Traces of the original sellotape used to close the carton. A little storage crumple and a small tear besides.
A very scarce find and a shrewd investment piece. A sensational Dinky display item – old shop stock Dinky models in their original packing are especially prized.
