Hi Richard, One of my all time favourite Dinkys, such a lovely perfect model, reminds me of the 28 type 1 in many ways, good to see those open rear windows too! Chris Warr.

Hi Richard, a marvellous find that is! I love the early white treaded tyres (and the general fine condition of this example). Congratulations! Kind regards, Jan

Hi all, for completeness' sake another view of my recent find in this New Arrivals thread, the French no. 23J Ferrari auto de course. Some tiny chips on the nose cone edge and one loose (but present and complete) end flap. It was announced in the French MM of October 1956.

Kind regards, Jan

Hi all, Although I find it difficult to be able to buy pre-war Dinky Toys, I was lucky to find some. This 36f British Salmson with driver is one of them. I also pictured it alongside its two seater companion and alongside a post war 36f in the same color scheme. Kind regards, Rob

Wonderful Rob. I love Pre War, but so far I've not found any of the cars with drivers passengers I could actually afford. I was offered a couple of 36 Series with people recently, but they were too far gone even by my fatigue tolerant standards! A lovely set, the British Salmson is such a nice model in 2 or 4 seater form. Chris Warr.

Hi all, The other pre war model I picked up on eBay from France is the 24h Sports Tourer in yellow with a blue chassis. The pre war colors can be so nice! I couldn's resist picturing it alongside the same model in different colors that has been a bit longer in my collection. Kind regards, Rob

Another great addition Rob, You are right, the colour range Pre War was fantastic, many have faded now after 70+ years of course, but they are still so lovely, the early Post war colours being restricted by what was available to Grey / Brown / Green etc and the loss of many two tone finishes makes the Pre War models really stand out in the display.

Hello all, Already some time in my pre war collection and indeed these models are very nice. As can be read in Dinky leaflets 'available in rich colours'. This is a 36e Two-seater with female driver. Chassis has the four slots for the tinplate figures. John.
