Dinky 236
Dinky 236 Connaught Racing Car. Very, very near mint/boxed. From a superb collection in The Netherlands.
Notes
Issued between 1956-59. Original light green finish, complete with driver, red interior, black steering wheel. Complete racing numbers all round, this is an impressive example!
Bright base (minor spidering). Well-shaped original tyres.

Tiny dot may be found if you search long enough. MInor oily paint marks toward the rear of the model – really subtle and as-made. You have to peer minutely to notice it.
The box is a fitting partner, with wonderfully vibrant colours on fresh crisp card. Resistant end flaps. Neatly-penned date on the top surface.
