D111
Dinky 111 Triumph TR2 Sports. Very near mint/boxed. Salmon pink version. From the Italian collection.
Notes
A very fine, virtually perfect example issued between 1956-59 in salmon pink (competition) finish, racing number 29. Bright mid-blue seats and hubs, white driver.
Barely handled, this model has an extra dab of paint to cover a paint flake on the driver’s head. Complete racing numbers, no rubs or marks at edges/details etc. Lovely sheen. Bright baseplate.
The box is brightly-coloured, complete with the correct colour spot too. Tiny edge grubbiness and a very small thumb tear at an end flap edge. Small ink mark on one side.
