D178
Dinky 178 Plymouth Plaza. Salmon pink & green. Export/late box. Very near mint/boxed. From the Italian collection.
Notes
Issued between 1959-63, this version has a lustrous salmon pink and light green finish with shining shaped spun wheels and clean white treaded tyres.
Presents well:
One little dot and under the most minute scrutiny you will see a couple of very subtle, extra touches of well-matched paint on the bonnet detail. No rubbing on the roof.
The late/export box is complete and vividly-coloured. Tear at an end flap seam and a pen mark near this site too. Correct colour spot. Crease and an ink stain. Minor wear besides.
