D189
Dinky 189 Triumph Herald. Rare version in lilac and very pale grey. Promotional. Excellent/boxed. Another exceptional item from The East Netherlands Collection.
Notes
The first we have ever offered for sale in this color finish – and surely one of the rarest finds! This Triumph promotional model is finished in lilac and very pale grey with silver trim to bumpers, radiator and headlights. In honest condition, with wear to the paint finish mostly at raised details.
The plain red and yellow box is clean, crisp and bright with a deep blue colour spot at the end flaps. Strangely enough, this is correct for this model since no lilac colour spot was made and this is the closest! ‘S’ white label at an end flap. Tiny wear only.
Such a scarce item to add to your Dinky collection – we do not expect to see another for a very long time indeed!
