Notes
This collection represents a lifelong deep appreciation of Dinky Toys, Britains models, Minic models and more primarily from the 1940’s & 50’s. All British made diecast and tinplate models. Proceeds going to charities close to his heart.
This shining bright Fire engine has a vivid unfaded red and glossy black finish, with shiny tinplate wheels, a working motor, 2 red plastic ladders and sections of original white hose with brass nozzles. Some still stowed and impossible to extricate now! Delightful little brass bell. Lemon-coloured plastic storage unit at the rear. Very nearly complete – complete transfers on both sides.
Presents nicely.
Rubbing to the rear wheel arches. Tiny plastic peg missing (one of 4) which attaches the ladder to the roof. Still attaches firmly nevertheless.
Colourfully, lift-off lid illustrated card box presents well, with minimal wear. Minic Key & promotional colour booklet included.
