D192
Dinky 192 De Soto Fireflite Sedan with windows. Near mint/boxed. Scarce late issue box. From a private collection.
Notes
An eye-catching Dinky American with an attractive two-tone paint finish, issued 1959-64.
Bright paint finish with no roof rubbing, or chips to wing tips. Rough casting in a couple of places. Occasional little mark may be found as well as a stray couple of dots of factory red on the roof (little details like the red paint were hand-applied at the factory at the time). Bright baseplate has a few little light scratches. Clean tyres, although the front two tyres have some hairline cracks (model still runs well).
The red and yellow plain card box is crisp, complete and brightly-coloured. No tears. A little period pricing and re-pricing at an end flap. A little grubbiness.
