Dinky 977
Dinky 977 Commercial Servicing Platform Vehicle. Very near mint/boxed. With Instruction Leaflet, both packing pieces and Dinky Quality Control Tag. From The Cumbrian Collection.
Notes
Issued between 1960-64 in eye catching cream and red finish, this is the civilian version of the military Missile Servicing Vehicle.
This particular example has a bright and fresh cream and red finish, looks unused. Upon closest inspection you will see the usual little mark to the rear edge of the cab roof, and there are a couple of small marks besides.
It comes complete with its spare wheel and none of the usual tarnishing of the metal parts.
The striped Supertoys box is complete, clean and bright. Light wear.
Notable that this item still has both upper and lower card packing pieces, the Instruction Leaflet and the Dinky Quality Control Tag. Occasionally, you will find these little factory tags – always a nice surprise when you do!
