A Dinky Toys No. 282 Duple Roadmaster Coach complete with its original box.
This model was produced between 1954 and 1960 and came in various colour combinations.
This particular model is dark blue with silver trim, mid blue ridged hubs and black smooth tyres.
The chassis is black and reads ‘Dinky Toys, 282, Duple Roadmaster, Leyland Royal Tiger, Made in England, Meccano Ltd’.
~ Dimensions ~
The coach measures 4 ¾ inches (12cm) by 1 ⅓ inches (3.5cm) by 1 ½ inches (3.75cm).
The box is just ever so slightly bigger and together they weigh 132g.
~ Condition ~
The coach is in good used condition with some wear such as scuffing and light paint bubbling.
The box is in quite poor condition missing most of the tabs and some pen marks. A yellow card insert has been used to keep the box structurally sound. The box does have the correct colour spot to the end flap.
