Extensive collection of Dinky Toys up for auction

Elliotts UK Auctioneers has recently taken possession of an extensive collection of Dinky cars for sale - just in time for its specialist toy
sale, which will take place on 8 November.

The collection represents one man's lifetime collection of the highly popular cars, starting from when he was a boy. Many of the items are
boxed and in mint condition, with some featuring lesser seen colour ways. A number of items are very rare, and some of the collection dates back to the 1940s and 1950s.

Elliotts owner Suzie Cheeseman says, "This is a really phenomenal collection, one that you don't see coming to auction very often. The
sheer number of vehicles in such good condition is fantastic - and there are a few rare ones too, which usually makes for a really exciting
auction."

The cars will feature in the next Elliotts sale, which is a specialist toy sale, alongside an eclectic mix of other items, including vintage
games, action men and accessories and toy spin offs from the Ghostbusters films including the building and action figures.

Suzie Cheeseman says, "With items in the sale from the 1940s through to more recent times, there is sure to be something to interest most collectors."

The toy sale will take place from 10am on 8 November at Elliotts' Stone Lane, Wimborne, Dorset auction house. The catalogue will be available
online Tuesday 4 November. An online auction is available to those who are unable to make it in person. More information at www.elliottsuk.co.uk.
