Notes
Two-tone classic Dinky cars are always sought-after and of course in short supply! This Hillman Minx has a distinctive light blue and cerise finish and mid-blue ridged wheels.
Barely a mark on this example. However, at some time, two little dabs of red paint were added at the rear (tail lights). One has been removed which has resulted in a little paint loss at this site. There are two dabs of stray silver paint head-on too. The baseplate has been enthusiastically cleaned – so much so, that the base does look rather rubbed now:
The bright pictorial box is bright and quite crisp. Correct two-tone colour spot at the end flaps. No graffiti. A little handling grubbiness.
A difficult find in any condition.
