Dinky Toys 156 Rover 75 Saloon
Rover 75 Saloon by Dinky Toys, No. 156. Two-tone green version. Scarce version with DARKER GREEN LOWER & LIGHTER GREEN UPPER. Large print baseplate. Very, very near mint/boxed. From The Nant-Y-Groes Collection.
Notes
This classic Dinky Rover Saloon was made between 1956-59 in this two-tone green finish. Wonderfully glossy finish and this particular colour version (darker green lower & lighter green upper) is subtly different from the more standard version and more difficult to find.
Note that this example has the large print and 156 on the shiny baseplate.
For comparison only, please take a look at this example in the foreground when set alongside the other two-tone green version also available separately at time of writing.
Pleasing lustre to the original, virtually mint paint finish throughout. Original smooth tyres are well-shaped.
The pictorial box is bright, fresh and complete. Crisp. Two-tone green colour spot at the end flaps. Very minor wear and a small compass-point sized puncture at an end flap.
