M17m
Minic 17M Vauxhall Tourer. Dark blue issue. Very near mint. Exceptional cache of Minic models from a lifelong collector in Devon.
Notes
He has been collecting as long as he can remember and whenever he feels like thinning out his collection, we are treated to some wonderful items for the website!
A very pleasing Vauxhall Tourer finished in an attractive deep French Blue and black with wooden seating and tinplate steering wheel. Shiny, intact radiator, headlight and bumper assembly. Intact windscreen (correct with no glazing). Working motor. Shiny plated wheels and the original smooth tyres are well-shaped (note two little partial surface splits, but we do not expect any further deterioration, if well-stored and carefully used). Lovely and complete delicate registration number transfer at the rear.
Occasional little mark/rub to the paint finish and a small retouch on the bonnet.
Approx. 12.5 cms. in length. Issued 1947-55.
