BBC Roving Eye Camera Truck by Dinky Toys

This particular model was sold on ebay by George's Good Stuff in November 2006 for £119.99 in the following condition:
This beatiful and hard to find Dinky model is in stunning virtually mint perfect condition, showing only the lightest odd spot of very tiny wear to the side raised edges, but these are barely noticeable and I doubt you'll find a better example than this anywhere, it's an absolute beauty!
It comes in its equally superb original blue and white striped lift-off lid card box which is showing only the lightest age wear, very crisp, clean, bright, and 100 per cent complete. The purple date stamp inside the lid reads '342 101 159'.
All in all, an absolutely superb mint boxed example of one of Dinky's hardest to find Supertoy models from the late 1950s early 1960s period, and a great addition to any collection!
