D260
Dinky 260 Royal Mail Van. Very near mint/boxed. From a private cache of high quality models.
Notes
This classic Dinky Royal Mail is one from the range of smaller vans issued between 1955-61. This Morris ‘J’ van has such a gleaming, bright red finish with a black roof, and ‘Royal Mail’ transfers on both sides (mere dot or two may be seen if you peer extra-closely).
Very shiny, fresh base and as-new smooth tyres.
Occasioanl minor mark only.
The pictorial box is clean, fresh and crisp. Bright colours. Feels rarely handled (plenty of end flap spring, unrubbed card). Little storage (corner) crumple and tiny wear besides. No tears or graffiti.
A classic Dinky Toy – in fine, all origibal condition.
