D173
Dinky 173 Pontiac Parisienne. Very near mint/boxed. Deep ruby-red with cast wheels. From The Berlin Collection.
Notes
A rich and deep metallic ruby red finish on this model issued between 1969-72. Detailed lemon interior, window glazing, two retractable aerials and suspension on detailed cast wheels. Fine original tyres.
Tiniest roof scratch and a dot at an exposed edge, if you really want to fault it.
(Buttons on base to operate the aerials. However, we do not recommend raising and retracting the aerials, since due to the age of the model, we find that sometimes they break/or lose their chrome coating).
The pictorial card box is complete, clean and bright. Looking fresh. Tiny handling tear at the tuck-in part of the large end flap at one side. Vivid colours. Card is crisp.
