D157
Dinky 157 Jaguar XK120 Coupe. Dark red issue. Scarce SPUN WHEELS version! Near mint plus/boxed (correct colour spot). Another rare model from The Berlin Collection.
Notes
A desirable Dinky car, especially sought-after in this colour finish and a rare find with spun wheels. In all original, deep red finish with a nice sheen. Looks barely handled.
Hard to find a mark but note that there is a touch of sunfading head-on. Bright baseplate. Well-shaped original tyres. Occasional minor mark/rub to the paint finish.
The correct late red and yellow box is complete and bright. Crisp feel. Note that one small end flap has a large tear. Penned number. Little rubbed area and label residue. Correct colour spot. Period collector’s date (28th March, 1961) is penned on the inside of one end flap.
