Notes
This gleaming Dinky commercial truck was issued in several different colour finishes between 1956-59, renumbered from 532 and 932.
This particular version has an all original vivid green cab and chassis, bright orange back with working, intact hinged tailboard, and lemon grooved wheels.
Not a trace of a rub on the cab roof – indeed the cab and chassis are mint!
Nice bright baseplate with spare wheel in place:
In unused, close to pristine condition, with such a glowing all original paint finish throughout. Upon close inspection, a few little marks to the raised detail on the orange back may be found.
The striped card ‘Dinky Toys’ box is very fresh, bright and clean. Both 418 Dinky number as well as 932 stamped at one end:
Presents very well indeed with minor wear including a small tear at the lid edge and slight rusting at the staples. Shopkeeper has crossed out 418 on the box lid. Complete clean and vivid Hudson Dobson export label:
