Description
The Reeded Edge is primarily known as a rare coin firm. But did you know that for years we were also one of the leading sellers of vintage toys and collectibles? Those of you who peruse eBay probably realize that we still have an extensive inventory of pre-1970 Dinky & Corgi models. Many of these models have been sitting idle for a decade or more. We realized that the market has changed, so we will be relisting each and every one with a lowered price and may even try a few auctions in the near future. Every one of these models was from a collection or old store stock. With the preponderance of modern reproductions in the marketplace, it is very important to stress that ALL OF THESE MODELS OFFERED FROM OUR INVENTORY ARE AUTHENTIC & VINTAGE, AND CARRY A LIFETIME AUTHENTICITY GUARANTEE. With that said, this particular model is a DINKY #503 FODEN FLAT TRUCK W/ TAILBOARD, RED MODEL & BLACK FLASHING, EXC W/ ORIGINAL VG “LABEL” BOX, RARE! This version features BLACK CHASSIS & FLASHING W/RED PAINTED HUBS. The condition overall is EXC with BRIGHT ORIGINAL PAINT (no touch-ups) and some scattered paint flecks, none larger than a pinhead. The model’s chassis is bright and attractive, the cab’s underside evidencing some topical crazing (consistent w/ its age), and overall, shows VERY limited playwear. The matching and correct box is bright and VG, with the all-important label basically complete, and otherwise showing only minor wear and fatigue. A finer example of this RARE model would be hard to find. Our commitment is to provide you with quality coins and collectibles at the best possible prices. This piece is no exception. Please note, the coin and collectibles markets do fluctuate, and prices occasionally will change. In this rare circumstance, we will contact you first to verify your order.
