Dinky 234
Dinky 234 Ferrari Racing Car. Very near mint/boxed. Scarce 'shark nose' version with yellow plastic wheels in correct lighter yellow picture box. The East Netherlands Collection.
Notes
A sought-after racing car from Dinky -this is the later “shark nose” version (yellow triangle at the front) which was issued for just one year only in 1964. Yellow plastic wheels. In very close to mint condition, this model displays superbly with a wonderfully vibrant and lustrous original finish. Bright baseplate (couple of fine light scratches).
Well-shaped original light grey tyres.
Little nick to one of the racing numbers ( suspect probably as-made). Couple of the usual little marks at the nose.
The correct for this late issue lighter yellow picture box is complete and clean, with a crisp feel. Little slit puncture on one side. Lightest wear besides.
