Notes
Issued between 1954-64 under this numbering, this Fork Lift Truck has a lustrous deep orange body, green forks and hubs. A rare find with green plastic wheels. Lighter grey original tyres are well-shaped. Shiny baseplate.Late issue so correct that the winding handle cuff is grey plastic.
A difficult find – particularly in this condition.
One very small mark away from mint (probably as-made).
Lift-off lid picture box is complete, clean and bright. Both upper and lower card packing pieces are included (couple of very small tears). Bright staples.
Another high quality Dinky from this collector.
