D903
Dinky 903 Foden Flat Truck with Tailboard. Violet blue and bright orange version. Near mint plus/boxed. From a most knowledgeable and enthusiastic collector in South London.
Notes
Second type cab issue of this Dinky truck made between 1952-56
This gleaming bright Supertoy model has a violet blue cab and chassis and a vivid orange back (not dull), paler blue grooved hubs. As-new, original black radial tyres. Shiny base (bolt fixing) and a fine lustre throughout with excellent original silver detailing at radiator, headlights and bumper.
Presents well in this eye-catching colour combination.
Difficult to find a mark. Upon closest inspection, there are a few subtle touch-ins at some wheel arches.
The box (with upright Supertoys print) is bright and complete with no tears or repairs. Two small flecks of surface loss at one lid end. Very minor wear besides.
Makes a wonderful display piece!
