Notes
There were lots of colour versions of this popular Dinky toy!
This early version has a rich warm tan cab, vivid mid-green back, red hubs, complete black lettering, well-shaped smooth black tyres. An unplayed with example in virtually mint condition, complete with a working tow hook. Perfect ‘DINKY SERVICE’ lettering in black on both sides, bright winding handle with brass cuff (early issue). Looks completely unused with an outstanding lustre.
The striped ‘DINKY TOYS’ box marks the transition from the older numbering 25X to the new numbering 430. Gives the impression of old shop stock quality with crisp, fresh colours on clean, intact card. Shiny staples too. Tiny wear only. U.S. Export Label Hudson Dobson on one side.
A classic Dinky Truck in outstanding condition.
