D62P
Dinky 62P Armstrong Whitworth "Ensign" Air Liner 'ELYSIAN'. Near mint/boxed. Rare early Wartime Dinky model from 1939. Exceptional! From a collection In Berlin
Notes
A sleek and lovely example which has survived the passing of the last 73 or so years very well tucked away in its powder blue lift-off lid box.
In all original condition, this Air Liner (version with gliding hole) has complete registration numbers on the wings as well as complete ’ELYSIAN ’ lettering on both sides. All four original propellors are still in place and the little metal wheels on the undercarriage turn freely. Straight unwarped wings and tail.
Barely seen the light of day!
A little wear to the silver finish at wings/tail/nose tips, a light scratch and minor marking besides.
Still a beautiful example!
The lift-off lid with informative section on the lid is complete.
Note the little ‘ELYSIAN’ label at one end. Minor age wear and colour blooming. Little water stain. Minor surface tear at one end has been repaired.
