Dinky 250
Dinky 250 Streamlined Fire Engine. Near mint plus/boxed. Treaded tyre version. From The Reference Collection.
Notes
A classic Dinky toy which is hard to resist! Such a bright and shining original paint finish on this cherished toy – sure to find pride of place in your collection!
Such a shining and vibrant finish, with a few minor marks at wheel arches A great example with its little bell and a shining bright silver ladder (none of the usual rubs!). A real little gem – and this late issue with treaded tyres was made towards the end of the production run (1954-62).
The box is complete, crisp with strong colours.
Minor storage grubbiness and a couple of end flap tears. Little thumb tear to an end flap seam.
One of our Dinky favourites, this Fire Engine epitomises Dinky models of this period.
