Mercury 24
Mercury No. 24 Maserati. Competition version. Near mint plus/boxed. Rare variation from The QDT Vault.
Notes
From the respected Italian diecast model maker, this Maserati 3500 GT Competition finish is a really eye-catching example in bright red, cream interior, black base. Opening bonnet (detailed engine beneath) and boot. Racing number 12 labels are complete. The decorative transfers are complete save for a tiny nick to the rear number-plate and minor wear to the ‘chequer’ detail. ‘Spoked wheel’ detail (although solid cast). Fine, supple tyres.
Barely a mark to the paint finish.
Colourful pictorial box is the correct version for this issue with ‘’COMPETIZIONE’ stamped at end flaps. Light wear.
A beauty!
