Record price for Dinky truck

A toy truck from the 1950s has fetched £12,000 at auction following a worldwide bidding war. . .

The maroon-coloured Foden miniature cost just 19 shillings when it was made in 1952, but proved unpopular with children who preferred Dinky's more glamorous sports car models.
