Re: A quick guide to 25 Series Lorries.

Bako,

Congratulations for your collection of 25s, specially for the very rare French 25a for which there are 29 colour variations. But why do you use Photobucket which is the worse photo service on the web ?

Re: Pre War V Post war Dinky Toys.

These hubs called "Tootsietoys type" are not very rare, they can be found on all the models which were made in 1934 and 1935. Like the models with criss cross chassis, these hubs are copies of the Tootsietoys models.

The seats of the Rolls seem to be self luminous like the hands of an old alarm clock but the seats of the N.S.U. are only illuminated when the lights are on.

It was branded DINKY without TOYS and was listed with the reference 354. It was made of plastic although a pre-production mod...
