Notes
Issued between 1960-64, this eye-catching Dinky taxi has a mid orange-yellow and red paint finish, bright shaped spun wheels with suspension and white knobbly tyres. Yellowish-cream interior interior and cream steering wheel. Gloss un-numbered baseplate and a complete ‘Taxi’ sign on the roof. Presents very nicely indeed with a vibrant original finish with complete lettering at both sides too:
A few negligible marks only.
The lighter yellow picture box is complete with all end flaps. Bright with a crisp feel. Puncture in the top surface (caused by the Taxi sign) has pressed back into place. Couple of little end flap tears. Period dollar price label.
