Dinky Toys 23K/230 Talbot-Lago Racing Car
Talbot-Lago Racing Car by Dinky Toys, No. 23K/230. Blue with blue cast wheels issue. Very near mint/boxed. From 1954 with 23K on the base and dual-numbered box. From The Cologne Collection.
Notes
A sought-after classic Dinky racing car with a fresh shining light blue finish, silver trim and bright baseplate, blue cast wheels. Fine, original grey tyres. Complete racing numbers on one side, very small nick to the other.
Shiny base.
Mere dot or two to the paint finish.
The deep yellow dual-numbered pictorial box is bright with quite a crisp feel and marks the change to the later numbering (230) which occurred in 1954. Note this model has 23K on the base, too, whereas later it would be 230. Light wear/grubbiness and a small fleck of surface loss. No punctures!
