Dinky Toys 237 Mercedes Benz Racing Car
Mercedes Benz Racing Car by Dinky Toys No. 237. Scarce late version. Matt white, red plastic wheels, blue metal driver, plastic steering wheel. Interesting transition issue. Very near mint/boxed. From The Berlin Collection.
Notes
A fine example in scarce matt white, with red plastic hubs, blue metal driver, plastic steering wheel, matt baseplate. Late issue made between 1960-62 presented in the correct light yellow card picture box.
In very close to mint condition, this most unforgiving of paint finishes has the occasional negligible mark.
Correct paler yellow late issue picture box is very crisp, bright and complete with all end flaps. Couple of tiny end flap tears. Crease.
Not an easy variation to find.
