Notes

Issued between 1963-70, this fine Dinky Supertoys model is in original condition. This model has a bright white and yellow cab and body, grey chassis, and grey plastic hubs.
So often, the white plastic tank becomes discoloured and yellowed over time – happy to say that this example is a very bright and fresh white colour.
Complete with tow hook and spare wheel still affixed to the bright baseplate.

and rear of tanker:

Just a few negligible marks away from mint and a little factory paint run at the driver’s window which can be carefully removed before putting on display.
The distinctive pictorial lift-off lid box is complete and intact with no splits or repairs. A little stain at one end of the lid and a shopkeeper’s price is clearly visible at one side of the lid. Minor rubbing and a small crumple.
