D492
Dinky 492 Election Mini Van 'Vote For Somebody'. Very near mint/boxed (wear). From The BST Collection.
Notes
Not an easy model to find in any condition – and this boxed example presents well with a very close to mint white paint finish and complete ‘VOTE FOR SOMEBODY’ labels on both sides. Suspension on shaped spun wheels. Complete with figure, cable and microphone. Not often found complete!
Light age transparency to the labels. Near-microscopic dot or two to the paint finish.The card plinth has a little wear, including a small circular surface tear where the figure was affixed.
The card and plastic over sleeve (fragile, so nearly always damaged) has some wear and tear to the card and the cellophane has been replaced. Issued during 1964 only.
