Notes
A classic sought-after Dinky Studebaker Tanker (early issue 1954-58) with a bright and original paint finish:



Complete ‘Mobilgas’ lettering on one side, a little light marking to a few letters on the other. Fine original silver bumpers and radiator detail. Barely any rubbing to the raised silver domes on the roof (just one has a slight rub)!

Lovely detailed transfer at the rear:

Bright baseplate.
Mark at one rear bumper edge and a couple of little marks besides. Couple of little marks on the roof (may be possible to clean off).
The scarce dual-numbered box is complete, if rather weary now. There is some wear and tear at flaps and rubbing at edges. Creasing too.
