Notes
An impressive example of this desirable Dinky car which is in all original, close to mint condition. This is an early issue in bright orange-yellow with matching ridged wheels. Issued between 1954-57.
Beautiful lustre!
Shiny baseplate and fine original tyres.
Little mark at a rear light detail and a very light rub or two at side raised body lines (caused by box contact). No chipping at headlights (little over-run of silver on one). No chipping at bumpers either.
Crisp, bright and clean box has label residue on one box face (can be improved with careful cleaning) and a few little dots on the top surface. Correct colour spot. Very minor seam tear. Period penned price at an end flap.
