D158
Dinky 158 Riley Saloon. Cream with green wheels version. Very near mint/boxed.
Notes
Issued between 1954-55 with this numbering, this example has a very fine cream paint finish with bright original silver detailing at the radiator and lights, green wheels. Delightful, unused example:
Couple of negligible dots if you want to fault it and a little raised casting dot on the roof. Minor rough casting on one door. Bright baseplate has a tow hook aperture and large print wth 40A. Fine original black tyres run well.
The box is strongly-coloured with bright, fresh card. Plenty of spring in those end flaps. Correct colour spot. Very crisp fresh feel. Tiny stain on the top surface. Shopkeeper’s period pricing at an end flap.
