Notes
A really pleasing example of this classic Dinky car, with an all-original paint finish in two-tone blue and pale grey cast wheels. A fine Dinky car made between 1956-60.
Fine lustre.
Shiny base. Few little marks. Original treaded tyres are well-shaped.
Little mark to the paint finish and a small area of rough casting on the roof.
The vivid picture box is complete with all end flaps intact. Correct colour spot. Period price on an end flap. Writing on one box face. Note the little grubby marks on the top surface caused by car tyres at some time.
