D492
Dinky 34C/492 Loudspeaker Van. Very near mint/boxed(transition box). Rare version with silver wheels. Very fresh example from the 1200 model Italian collection.
Notes
Issued between 1954-57, this unused van has a truly lustrous violet blue original paint finish with silver loudspeaker and silver wheels. Very bright silver loudspeaker and original trim too. An extremely attractive, close to shop-fresh, Dinky classic.
Faint scratch on one side and a tiny mark besides.
The unusual dual numbered box with the Dinky number in a black oval is complete and brightly-coloured, although grubby now with a few creases and wear. Shopkeeper’s pencilled price.
