Dinky 197
Dinky 197 Morris Mini-Traveller. Very, very near mint/boxed. Ivory with a LIGHT BLUE interior. Rare version. From the 'Exclusively Mini' Collection.
Notes
Issued in 1961, this fine Mini has a shining ivory finish with a pale blue interior and light brown ‘woodwork’ detailing at the sides. A very hard variation to find. Suspension on bright spun wheels. Fingertip steering feature.
In virtually mint condition – one of the best surviving examples.
The fresh, clean and bright yellow pictorial box with features panel is really very nice indeed; bright vivid colours. Period pencilled price and ‘cream’ penned nearby.
Only the most minor wear.
