Dinky 402
Dinky 402 Bedford 'Coca-Cola' Truck. Near mint plus/boxed, with card packing piece. Sought-after model from The MBU Collection.
Notes
Issued between 1966-69, this Bedford Truck is in fine, all original, unused condition with a vivid red and white finish, complete load of crates, and intact paper labels throughout. Excellent labels (often these can get very worn indeed) with a little of the usual age transparency.
Unmarked white roof.
Little chip on the front bumper and a couple at a side edge toward the rear.
The colourful pictorial end flap box is clean, bright and complete. Nearly always with torn end flaps due to the weight of the model inside these comparatively flimsy boxes. This example has a little handling wear (tiniest tear and some edge scuffs, creases). Still presents well with the decorative period scene proving a fine backdrop to this Bedford Truck.
Unusual to find with the card packing piece.
A desirable Dinky item which is getting scarce.
