D177
Dinky 177 Opel Kapitan Rare SOUTH AFRICAN issue in PRIMROSE YELLOW. Very, very near mint/boxed (wear). From The DC Collection.
Notes
Finished in an appealing light primrose yellow and distinctly different from the caramel South African shade. Shiny spun wheels, silver trim, matt base, South African rivets, and as-new fine tread tyres.
In wonderful virtually mint, original condition:
The correct Arthur E. Harris Dinky box is clean, complete and brightly-coloured. Presents well although upon opening, one can see 2 end flaps (one small, one large) have been re-attached and there is a tape re-inforcement to another.
Period label with colour and price in South African Rand at an end flap.
The first we have ever offered for sale and one of the rarest Dinky models.
