Notes
This fine Dinky military vehicle was issued between 1963-71 and this example has a notably intact propellor (so often these are broken!) and the complete complement of crates and barrels stowed.
This model has an original matte military green finish with driver. The paint finish is virtually perfect (couple of the tiniest marks if you really peer closely), and one of the crates is age discoloured now (both are original but one was stored out of the box). The raised lettering ‘HAUT’ and ‘FRAGILE’ has been coloured on one of them, so that it is easily visible (usually it is the same colour as the crate itself so more difficult to notice).
This item comes in an attractive, bright, pictorial box. Crisp feel to the card. Tear at an end flap seam and a little water staining. Shopkeeper’s price is faintly pencilled at an end flap.
