Notes
A fine and scarce Dinky model marking the trasnsition from 40f (early numbering) to the later 154 numbering in 1954. This example has a sleek bottle green finish, with lighter green wheels, bright baseplate with small lettering.
Obviously unplayed-with and carefully handled, this fine model has a couple of barely visible dots and a little minor rubbing at the bumpers. None of the usual rubbing to the roof. Minor tyre flat spot.
The dual-numbered pictorial box has the correct colour spot on the end flaps. Small edge tear at the tuck-in part of an end flap and the occasional little crease besides.
A rare find.
