D268
Dinky 268 Renault Dauphine Minicab. Very near mint/boxed. From The 25 Year Collection.
Notes
One of our favourite Dinky cars and an increasingly difficult find. This example is very close to mint with a vivid original deep red finish and clean detailed advertising transfers throughout (tiniest fleck or two visible under magnification).
Couple of tiny marks and two stray dots of factory silver on one side. Presents well with a fine lustre.
The red and yellow picture box is bright and complete. Note the additional Dinky over-sticker on both sides of the box.
A little rubbed in places and there is a small cut at an end flap edge. Period pencilled prices.
Issued between 1962-67.
