The first Dinky Toys cars came on the market in December of 1933, but they were not called Dinky Toys until April of 1934. Until then they where Modelled Miniatures sold under the name of their original manufacturers, the Frank Hornby firm best known for its electric trains. This are military models from the 1950´s /60´s
All are fine items but the last one is great. Looks more like a 2 pounder gun than a 25 pounder but I could be mistaken. Regardless it is a great set. Which reminds Matchbox Monday will be a military theme.
I always have liked Dinky, Hornby is legendary in the toy biz. I like them all, but I agree with Apache that the last wins the prize. I like what I guess is the caison in the group. Haven't heard from you in a while, hope you had nice Christmas and New Year.
