D273
Dinky 273 Mini Minor Van 'RAC'. Near mint plus/boxed. From the 1200 model Italian collection.
Notes
Issued between 1965-70, this Mini Van has a vibrant blue and white finish, bright red interior, shiny shaped spun wheels with suspension, and a dark graphite grey base.
RAC labels are bright and complete on both sides and on the roof. The delicate transfers on the opening back doors have complete lettering and logo although there are a couple of tiny nicks to the blue background of the transfer.
Looking at the paint finish, one will find a few tiny negligible dots. Gleaming bright and original paint finish make this an attractive display piece.
The pictorial box is complete and brightly-coloured with quite a crisp feel. Some minor grubbines on one surface (shelf-wear) and a little ruffling/start of a tear at a couple of end flap corners. Shopekeeper’s penned price at an end flap.
