Dinky 492
Dinky 492 Loudspeaker Van. Very near mint/in early box (dual-numbered, & 492 in black oval). From The West Midlands Collection.
Notes
Issued between 1954-57, this unused van has a rich violet blue original paint finish with a silver loudspeaker and light blue cast wheels. Lustrous paint finish throughout and a very bright silver loudspeaker make this an extremely attractive Dinky classic.
Little casting mark on the bonnet (minor). One of the smooth original tyres has a very slight flat spot.
The unusual dual numbered box with the Dinky number in a black oval is complete and bright, with a crisp feel. Plenty of end flap spring. Light wear.
A beautiful classic Dinky Toy!
