Dinky 50E
Full Trade Box of 6 HMS Delhi Ships. Generally very near mint ( fatigue to 2). Early issues. Another rare find from The Phillips Collection.
Notes
Another first for QDT. We have never brought to the market-place a single HMS Delhi Ship, let alone a full Trade Box! An extremely rare find (1934-39). Early issues with name on the base.
A couple have fatigue crazing, otherwise all fine and all complete with their wire masts.
Deep yellow end flap Trade Box with additional ‘Cruiser’ label on both short lid ends. Light surface rubs have been professionally camouflaged with well-matched ink at some time. Light wear besides including some foxing to the box base interior. No splits or repairs.
One could wait another lifetime to find another full Trade Box.
