D281
Dinky 281 Luxury Coach. Fawn, orange flash, green wheels. Scarce. Near mint/boxed. From a collection in Berlin.
Notes
Issued between 1954-60 in various colour finishes, this being one of the more difficult versions to find.
Base is shiny (minor ‘spidering’). Original smooth tyres run well.
Barely a mark to the fawn finish. Note that there are a few little touch-ins on the orange flash on the sides.
The box is clean, bright and so crisp! Little mark on the top surface. Note that this example has the red colour spot at the end flaps. However, for display purposes this model is actually pictured on one box face.
