French Dinky Toys 551 Rolls Royce Silver Wraith
Rolls Royce Silver Wraith by French Dinky Toys, No. 551. Very near mint/boxed. Scarce. From Boris's Collection.
Price: £165.00
Notes
The scarce version of the more familiar English Dinky 150. Actually, this French issue was made using the English casting, although assembled in France and of course what distinguishes it from its more common cousin, is the baseplate stamp ‘Assemble en France’.
Gleaming two-tone grey finish with bright chromed bumpers. Complete bonnet emblem too.
Very close to mint condition (couple of factory assembly marks near the rear bumper).
The plain yellow card box is complete and bright. Crisp feel. Minor wear.
