Notes
From an investment collection of high quality models.
Issued between 1956-60 and one of the much sought-after range of Sports and Racing cars, this example is in very near mint condition with a pleasing lustre to the all original finish.
In unused condition.
One little chip on the bonnet and that’s about it Lovely sheen to the deep green finish, racing number ‘8’ (one has a little lower edge nick), black spoked wheels and fine as-new original tyres. Cream base.
The highly-evocative pictorial box is a delight!
Vibrant colours on crisp card. Period price at an end flap. Small scuff.
Easy to see why these racing cars are eagerly sought by collectors!
