Dinky 973 Eaton Yale Articulated Tractor Shovel, with an orange body, with yellow base, shovel and hubs and 'Yale 6000' labels.

First issued in 1971, this lovely example is in very near mint condition, with a few chips to the paint. One of the decals is slightly faded, but generally they are in very good condition. For the best idea see the pics.

The box is original, complete with the inner protective card and quite a nice example. The card is lightly creased and generally shows signs of wear and a few small marks to it. 7-8/10.

From a small, but nice collection of vintage models by Dinky, Corgi, Matchbox etc...
