Notes
A scarce and early Gift Set from Dinky with great nostalgic British appeal! A rare find.
It comprises:
1) Dinky 42A Police Box with a deep blue finish with silver details. A little crazing to the top section and note the discolouration where the model has been in contact with the card inner for a prolonged period.
2) Dinky 42B Motorcycle Patrol has a bright pleasing colour finish. Few touch-ins visible when scrutinised closely. Clean, original, white, solid rubber wheels. Minor crazing. Nearly always split, or at best very grubby, these are a welcome sight!
3) Dinky 42C Point Duty Policeman in a white coat. Very near mint.
4) Dinky 42D Point Duty Policeman in a blue uniform. Very near mint.
*Inner carded tray is fresh, bright and clean with no loss of colour vibrancy. A wonderful London scene backdrop for these items. Very small tear and tiny wear.
Attractive deep powder-blue lift-off lid box is well-preserved card with no tears, splits or repairs. Minor age/handling wear only.
