Very nice tanker Dave, what a great lot. J

Yes, a great little lot, what shape is the tanker in? The little Dinky saloon looks to be in good nick, once the wheels are sorted. (say 99 )

Very interesting collection, Dave.

Hi,guys,
glad you found this doctors bag lot interesting,heres the post mortem,i have just gone through it and a couple of things stick out ,notice the various pairs,!!? could have belonged to twins,also there are more dinky wheels than needed so maybe some went missing in the past,pity there wasn,t two green tankers. The little lead animals are callled cadbury cococubs,i won some of these last week that were poor and missing their stands,a cococub little boy licking a chocolate bar could be worth £100 so worth looking out for sadly no boy in this lot but the cococubs are much better than my last lot.The non lesney are a couple of dinkys both austins? a britains lilliput saloon,plastic a cereal premium,and a lesney land rover lookalike,the figures/soldiers i guess are britains , the stretcher squad is nice too,the rest of the lesneys are mostly are good ,can,t see any stand out rarities apart from the tanker,the bag is not much bigger than a purse so would have carried something small and is british made.

Nice win Dave,
Looks a bit like a box of superfasts that I bought at a boot fair many years ago, They were all doubles, two of everything which I think must have been bought for twins, only the 69c Rolls Royces were different, one was blue and the other one yellow. (no not gold, YELLOW)
I wonder if there were once two green tankers in this lot!.

i wondered that but looking at the older toys i wonder if the twins inherited there slightly older big brothers stuff,the twins stuff is well cared for,the slightly older stuff well played with

YELLOW ROLLS ROYCE ,THESE THINGS ARE OUT THERE YOU JUST NEED TO GET OUT THERE AND FIND THEM,DO YOU STILL HAVE IT?

No I sold it a few years back, I think it went for a mere £25 but it was rough.
There is a pic of it on my site.
