Dinky Toys 905 Foden Flat Truck with Chains
Foden Flat Truck with Chains by Dinky Toys, No. 905. Maroon with MAROON wheels. Scarce. Very near mint/boxed (dual-numbered). From 1954. A beautiful classic Dinky Toy from The Youngwood Collection. Starting bid £200. Please note that QDT apply 12.5% buyer's commission.
Notes
This fine Dinky Truck has spent a large percentage of its 70 or so years tucked away in its box. The lustre to the rich maroon paint and the brightness and colour of the original chains tell us this.
A more difficult find with matching maroon grooved Supertoy wheels. Black radial tyres are well-shaped too. Straight chain posts, original chain, rounded chain post bosses and a bolt fixing for the spare wheel. Large painted hook. 20mph transfer.
Such an attractive display piece – barely a mark to be found!
The complete and bright DINKY TOYS (not Supertoys) box is clean, complete and strongly-coloured. Light age wear includes tarnished staples and a very small scuff. This box is dual-numbered so marking the change from 505 to 905 which occurred during 1954.
