Notes

From one of the largest, private collections we have ever seen, with many items bought new at the time and stored away until now. Taken as a whole, the collection provides an exciting, kaleidoscopic snapshot of popular diecast toys issued during the 1960?s -1970?s.

Issued between 1957-60, this eye-catching classic Dinky car has an all original light lemon finish, with a bright green interior – scarce with spun wheels (shiny). Bright baseplate, intact original windscreen. Original driver, steering wheel.

Just a tiny mark on the driver’s head (as usual) and a tiny dot or two besides. Little (factory) over-run of the green seating paint on one edge (minor). ‘M’ stamped original treaded tyres are fine.
The rare paler lemon picture box is bright and complete with a crisp feel. Note that only this colour version is pictured on both sides of the box. Correct colour spot. Ink smudge and a penned mark on one end flap. Period price at another. Little crease and a tiny slit/puncture on the box underside.
A difficult find.
