It certainly does, it was only surface dust and came off very quickly. Regards Dave

I need to get some of those boats with figures to go with my three Ford Corsairs with drivers.

I do have a Healey boat with a driver, but this boat's a Hong Kong copy. it's very close to the Dinky, close enough to fit on a Dinky trailer.

My dear friend, I'm desesperately looking for informations about the Dinky Toys real life prototypes. I see you have got some leaflet. So, can you be so kind to tell my someting about Opperman Motocart, Leyland Comet, Studebaker Tanker and Trojan Van specs? I particularly need to know what kind of motors they had and when they have been produced. Thanks a lot for your help. Gianni Catella (whith greetings from Rome!)

Thank you Richard, I'm wondering about an ABS system in a gun!? I mean: what could it be for the ABS lettering on the Dinky gun box? About the Euclid, I'm looking for the real one specs: year of production, engine and so on. By the way, I can easier write in english, but you can answer to me in french... Ciao, Gianni

Gianni, If you are talking about the 'Obusier de 155 ABS', ABS means 'Ateliers de Bourges' The 'obusier' was manufactured in that place. 'A' for Ateliers 'B' and 'S' first and last letters of Bourges which is the city where was located the manufacture. ciao Richard

One would almost forget that this thread is meant to be used for special photography, so I thought of a compromise:
