Notes
A classic Dinky model issued just during 1954 with a shining cerise and ivory paint finish, cream hubs. In all original condition with a shining silver trim.
Obviously unplayed-with and carefully handled, note the little as-made paint blemish low down on one rear door. Raised casting dot on the roof.
Bright baseplate has minor ‘spidering’. Smooth-running original tyres.
The pictorial card box, displaying the correct two-colour spot is complete and bright. Some of the usual rubbing/wear at some edges, including a little tear. Large penned period price at an end flap.
