D159
Dinky 159 Morris Oxford Saloon. Mint/boxed. Green & cream issue. An exceptional example from a private collection of Dinky and Corgi models, mostly purchased during the early 1980's at U.K. auction houses.
Notes
A classic Dinky model with a lustrous green and cream paint finish, green wheels. In mint condition with a wonderful lustre!
Not a trace of a roof rub and the colours are vibrant! Note the tiny (stray factory) dot of green paint on the bonnet centre line.
The pictorial card box is bright and clean with the correct colour spot at the end flaps. Very minor age wear only. Shopkeeper’s period penned price at an end flap.
A lovely investment piece.
