D178
Dinky 178 Plymouth Plaza. Two tone blue version. Near mint plus/boxed (harder find in the plain red and yellow box). From the south-east London Collection.
Notes
Finished in an eye-catching two-tone blue colour scheme with shiny shaped spun hubs, and white, ‘M’ stamped, knobbly tyres (light flat spot to one).
Shiny base has minor ‘spidering’ :
In fine unused condition, with a faint roof rub (visible under intense light), and a stray flick of factory silver low down on one side. Mere dot or two to the paint finish besides.
The red and yellow box looks clean and bright, with the correct colour spot. A little handling wear at end flaps including two tiny seam tears.
