Dinky Toys 153 Standard Vanguard
Standard Vanguard Saloon by Dinky Toys, No. 153. Very near mint/boxed. Cream version. From The West Midlands Collection.
Notes
Issued between 1954-60, this Standard Vanguard car has a shining deep cream finish with cream hubs, closed in rear wheel spats, and smooth black original tyres and ‘Vanguard’ cast on the underside of the roof. This model presents well with its classic lines – not even a trace of a roof rub!
Original treaded tyres are well-shaped.
Occasional little mark to this most unforgiving of paint finishes. Minor base tarnishing.
The clean and bright picture box has very light wear only. Crisp feel.
