Notes
What a beauty! We would quickly run out of superlatives when describing this beautiful Dinky car, issued between 1959-62.
In absolutely gleaming, sleek, black with the unusual R.A.F. blue interior and chassis and shaped spun shining wheels. Driver, steering wheel. Perfect “Taxi” sign on the roof, and lovely detailing of the radiator, meter and lights.
Outstanding.
The fresh, clean box is a fitting partner, although there is a price scribbled out on one end flap.
Definitely one to treasure.
