D129
Dinky 129 M.G. Midget Sports. Very, very near mint/boxed (end flap repair). Very scarce U.S. issue. A premium item from the large private European collection we are handling.
Notes
Dinky 108 was issued briefly as an U.S. export model in both red and cream.
This red version is a real showstopper! This M.G. has a brilliant flame red finish with mid brown seats, red ridged wheels, intact original windscreen, correct without driver or racing numbers.
In ex-shop stock condition. The baseplate is bright and without tarnishing. Correct that the number 108 is printed on the base since a special baseplate for the U.S. issue was never made.
Closest scrutiny reveals one small mark at the bonnet front and an even smaller mark on the driver’s door. Both are so easily overlooked! Slight rough casting on a wheel arch.
The pictoial box is very bright and clean, looking rather ‘scrubbed’ in appearance. One small end flap has been carefully re-attached. Correct colour spot. The initial ‘D’ in red ink at an end flap. One edge crumple and tiny handling wear besides.
An exceptionally scarce item – especially in this condition!
