D148
Dinky 148 Ford Fairlane. Very, very near mint/boxed. Very rare emerald green issue. Outstanding item from The Berkshire Collection. One of the best surviving examples.
Notes
A difficult colour version to find in any condition, this emerald green issue is in exquisite, all original condition – a jewel of a car!
Such a difficult model to find in this colour, so often missing from the most comprehensive Dinky collections.
Matt baseplate:
Very tempted to call this model mint (most would) – just a couple of mere pinpricks and a little rub on the bumper, from absolutely pristine.
The later pale yellow pictorial box is a fitting partner with extremely clean, intense colours on crisp card with resistant end flaps, showing minimal handling. Two small stains on the box underside, otherwise hard to fault. Period penned price at an end flap.
_ A superb investment piece to enjoy_.
