Dinky 181
Dinky 181 Volkswagen. Sky blue version. Spun hubs and scarce chrome base. Very, very near mint/boxed. Harder to find box version WITHOUT colour spot detail. From The Berlin Collection.
Notes
A fine gleaming example of this model which has a distinctive sky blue finish with bright spun wheels, scarce with a chrome base and black treaded tyres.
Looking like old shop stock:
In original, barely handled condition with just a couple of tiny dots.
The correct lighter yellow picture box looks very close to shop-fresh, with clean, vivid colours and crisp card. Note that this version does not have the usual colour spot detail at the end flaps (a more difficult find).
Barely any wear.
A very nice example indeed.
