Dinky 156 Rover 75 Saloon. Mid-blue and cream. Large print baseplate. Very near mint/boxed. Fresh, bright box. From The Berlin Collection.
Notes
This most eye-catching Rover Saloon has a lustrous, eye-catching mid-blue and cream finish. Issued between 1956-59.
Shiny base (minor ‘spidering’) and smooth, well-shaped original tyres. Note that this example has the large print and 156 on the baseplate.
In all original condition with a couple of mere dots. High lustre and not even a trace of a roof rub! Carefully handled and stored this model has retained its vibrancy and sheen. An outstanding display piece.
The pictorial box is clean and crisp with the correct two-colour spot at the end flaps. In very fresh condition. Period pencilled price on one picture face.
A wonderful classic Dinky model; two-tone cars from this period in this condition are always highly sought.
