Dinky 157
Dinky 157 Jaguar XK120 Coupe. Near mint plus/boxed. Scarce cream version, and rare with CREAM WHEELS (not fawn). A rare version from The DC Collection.
Notes
A scarce colour issue – this Dinky Jaguar has a shining cream finish with deeper cream wheels.
Bright base generally (few small tarnished spots) and the smooth original tyres run well.
This Jaguar model is a difficult find in cream but with deeper cream wheels – a very rare item! Usually found with fawn wheels.
A mere light rub or two at at side raised body lines. Minute scrutiny reveals two dabs of extra cream paint on the roof (probably factory) and a very small one on a front wing. .
The correct card box is complete and bright with a cream colour spot at the end flaps. Very minor age wear only. No tears. No graffiti. Period shop price label ’ F.A. O Schwarz, New York’. Very nice indeed!
An exceptionally scarce Dinky Jaguar variation.
