Dinky 197 Morris Mini Traveller. Rare issue in *DARK GREEN WITH A YELLOW INTERIOR*. Near mint plus/boxed. From a lifetime collection in London.
Notes
We are very pleased to offer for sale the rarest version of this Dinky Mini-Traveller in original, near mint condition. The car has a dark green finish with a yellow interior, cream steering wheel.
Carefully handled and well-stored, this Mini model has a small thin light scratch immediately beneath the driver’s window and a small mark on the bonnet. Little mark at a rear raised detail. Couple of minor rubs to the brown ‘wood work’. Pinprick mark or two besides. Matt base. As-new fine tread, original tyres run well.
The correct lighter yellow picture box is complete, bright and clean. Only the most minor light wear; this box has lost none of its vibrancy and there are no tears – and that includes the little tuck-in part to the large end flaps.
An extremely difficult issue to find in this colour finish.
