D934
Dinky 934 Leyland Octopus Wagon. Very near mint/boxed. Dated 1956. A premium item from a Dinky collector in Tyne& Weir, England.
Notes
Superb first issue in green and yellow finish, red diecast hubs, green band above the radiator.
Such vibrant, day-one bright colours! The paint finish is virtually unmarked:
One of the nicest examples we have seen in a while. This model has just one barely visible touch-in at a wheel arch and a little casting roughness to the top back edge. Couple of minor marks besides.
The striped Supertoys box is in close to mint condition too, with barely any wear at all! Very clean and fresh with vivid colours. Rusting to the staples. The Dinky stamp inside the box lid dates this model from 1956.
