Another great lot

Post by RSSierra »

I bought this lot for the Dinky and Morestone items, there are more here than initially are obvious. There are quite a number of other good items here too.

As always better photo's when they arrive.

Cheers

Dave

I'm sure you'll have fun going through that nice selection of items when they arrive. Looks like the telephone box is Spot On to go with the road sign and traffic lights - not an easy item to find.

Cheers Fred, that's an added bonus. I knew it wasn't Dinky as the window frames are too well defined but I couldn't find any comparable pictures.

Yep, the two Austin 7's are the best items for me, I have spare axles and black wheels so these will be an easy fix and they will fill a gap in my 35's. The two original dinky cast drivers are what I spotted too and I am interested to see what make the two gas pumps are. The Hornby HP sign will be going on my sons train layout.

Dinky has made some Gas pumps very similar to those Red and White items, but they are usually trimmed as Esso branded pumps. There are some good condition Corgi Juniors especially the White 'POLICE' Vigilante Range Rover. A couple of Lesney regular wheeled models and an island with Three Gas pumps in Red just above the Yellow Austin. The tiny land speed record cars at first looked like they were 'R & L' but they are more likely to then have the same colouerd wheels, so I will be interested in finding out what they are and staying with plastic, there is a great looking Blue 1911 Maxwell 'Yesteryear' look-a-like lying on it's side, another model I would like to see in more pictures including the base if you can, thank's.
