Dinky Toys Dodge Tipping Wagon with Enamel Key Pendant

This Dinky Toys Tipping Wagon features a new enamel on the copper wagon and mechanism. In the wagon's bed rests an enamel-on copper KEY with the original logos from the box it once came in. The tipping wagon has a sterling silver flap that says "back off" since the day I made this piece, I had been feeling a little feisty. 

The set includes the truck, the ket, and the 20" sterling silver chain. 

Dinky Toys has a unique history. The company was around from the 1930s to the late 70's with a brief period of no production during the occupation in France. The company created many lines of cars, mostly inspired by designs in Europe. This particular truck came to me without the wagon or tipping mechanism. After researching this design, I found that this truck is by far the most expensive in my collection if found in good condition and with the correct packaging.
