Notes
A familiar Dinky Supertoy from Dinky’s heyday; surely every child from the mid 50’s-60’s remembers it well! This 2nd issue has the red-backed logo (earlier issues had a pale yellow backed logo), and no window glazing.
A creamy yellow, all-original paint finish, metal winding handle, and the all-important “Euclid” lettering, logo, and wording virtually complete-complete on both sides (tiniest of nicks).
Usual contact marks only visible once the tipping back is elevated. A few tiny marks besides.
The striped Supertoy box is bright and clean. Looking fresh.
Partial thickness puncture in the box lid caused by the winding handle (pressed back into place). Dinky stamp inside the box lid dates this particular example from 1958. Complete Hudson Dobson export label on the lid.
