D477
Dinky 477 Parsley's Car. Very near mint/boxed. From The Daylight Collection.
Notes
Originally purchased by the owner from a collector who enjoyed touring toy shops in the mid 60’s & early ’70’s buying models that appealed to him. If he could find a bargain then he would buy multiple examples of the same item. His collection comprises Dinky, Corgi and several Spot-On models.
Issued by Corgi between 1970-72 and inspired by the t.v. series “The Adventures of Parsley”. The bull nosed Morris Oxford is in lime green and black finish with the endearing figure of Parsley at the wheel.
It looks very fine indeed with just a couple of little marks on one of the running boards.
The box inner card surround has all the figures ready to be cut-out – Dill, Bayleaf, Knapweed and not forgetting Tarragon the Dragon underneath! Virtually pristine.This model comes in a complete, colourfully illustrated card box. Tiny age wear only.
