Dinky 234
Dinky 234 Ferrari Racing Car. Very near mint/boxed. One of the rarest Dinky Racing Cars. Close to pristine red and yellow card box. From Victor's Collection.
Notes
A rare find indeed! This is a late issue with shaped spun wheels, although a transition model since it has the full yellow nose cone rather than the ‘shark nose’ that one would expect.
Lustrous finish with shiny wheels and fine original grey tyres. Obviously rarely handled, there is a very small as-made casting mark low down on one side and tiny marking to the paint finish besides.
Close to pristine fresh red and yellow non-picture n=box is a fitting partner.
A wonderful display piece – and a variation missing from many Dinky collections.
