Notes
A premium Dinky commercial model to add to your collection – and a rare find. With a lustrous yellow finish, black wings, and black ridged wheels (usually red), this is only the second we have offered for sale.
A very presentable example of a rare model:
At first glance, this model looks mint, it is only upon closer scrutiny that a few touch-ins may be found. Small chip at a front bumper edge. Note that this scarce issue with black wheels has the early clip fit trailer coupling as well as the coupling area in yellow (later black).20 mph transfer is still in place at the rear.
The mid-powder blue box with a picture label is a real delight box: strong, fresh colours on clean undamaged card. Old shop stock quality!
Period penned price at a lid end.
A scarce variation – few Dinky commercial collections can boast one of these!
