Notes
Many items from this collection were bought new during the 1960?s, after enquiring in toyshops for old, unsold shop stock.
This desirable Dinky car was made between 1958-63, in two different two-tone colour finishes.
This late issue has a fresh original blue and turquoise paint finish and of course,* shaped spun wheels*:
Just a couple of small marks including three light ‘line’ marks on the roof which may be possible to clean away.
The pictorial box is bright and complete, with the correct colour spot. MInor handling wear and light grubbiness. Shopkeeper’s price is penned at an end flap.
