Dinky 23E
Full Trade Box 6 x Dinky 23E/221 Speed Of The Wind Racing Cars. With original dividers. Fantastic and scarce old shop stock item from The London Collection. From 1949.
Notes
Delightful old shop stock item with all 6 original glistening silver Speed of The Wind Racers inside!
Obviously an unsold shop item, this is not a later made up set. Each model has barely been handled , so retaining its day-one fresh, unrubbed silver finish, with light brown driver detail, red cast wheels, grey radial tyres and shiny rivetted informative base with 23E stamped. In very, very near mint-mint condition.
Couple of negligible marks to some, probably as-made, and in any case extremely minor.
The deep yellow Trade Box is clean and complete with the original dividers. Remnants of old tape on the two long sides of the box lid and on the base. No surface removal or graffiti. A little handling tear at one of the thumb cut-outs.
A scarce find, especially in this complete and authentic condition.
