D240
Dinky 240 Cooper Racing Car. Mint/boxed, with both plastic fixing clips and unpunctured original cellophane. From a large, stunning diverse collection with many items in old shop stock condition.
Notes
In blue and white finish, blue removable engine cover, complete racing number 20. Superb, and obviously unused, with both fixing clips which fasten the car to to the card base.
Supple, well-shaped original tyres.
Just one little mark behind the driver.
These export “see-through” boxes are nearly always found with heavy wear and torn or replaced cellophane. Very pleased to say that this example has unpunctured original cellophane. Little surface loss at an end flap. A period price label nearby. Remains of the old tape which kept the box closed. Seam tear. Minor wear to the card besides.
