D434
Dinky 434 Bedford T.K. Crash Truck with an off-white back ' and 'TOP RANK' labels. Rare - one of a small factory run. Near mint plus/boxed. From 'The 25 Year Collection'.
Notes
Issued between 1966-70, this Bedford TK Truck has an all original red cab with a black ridged roof and an off-white back, red interior and operating wheel, red plastic wheels. Small factory run, this example has complete ‘TOP RANK’ transfers (usually this version would have a grey back and ‘Auto Services’ transfers on both sides).
This Bedford Truck is in all original condition. Light sprinkling of small marks on the light grey finish at some exposed points. Few tiny rubs on the ribs of the black ribbed roof.
The attractive pictorial end flap box is clean and bright. Couple of little tears to the tuck-in part of one large end flap. (These later end flap boxes often suffer from extensive wear due to the comparatively flimsy nature of the card in relation to the weight of the truck enclosed inside). Little area of surface loss due to the removal of a price label at an end flap.
