Notes
With an all original paint finish in deep green and a greenish-cream, and fawn hubs. A fine Dinky car made between 1956-60.
Bright base (minor ‘spidering’) and the smooth-running original tyres are a touch grubby now.
The top half is quite an unusual shade and certainly distinctly different from the other colour version (also present in this collection). Shown here for comparison:
The box lis very crisp, if slightly grubby, now. Correct colour code at the end flaps, since this model was also available in two-tone blue. Period shopkeeper’s pencilled price at an end flap and one box face.
