D117a5631

Mark on the opening door hinges and a few little marks to the side raised body line on one side. Clear unblemished glass and a bright untarnished towing hitch.
Bright yellow box is complete and quite an unusual variation. This box was actually intended for a Dinky 188 Caravan model in green. However, this two- tone model was replaced by 117 – this must have been one of the last remaining boxes and a printed label 117 was placed over the original numbering throughout. A couple of tiny end flap tears but otherwise very clean, bright and fresh. U.S price on one box face in large print.
Quite a rarity!
