Notes
Issued between 1958-61, this classic Dinky car has a pale grey lower body with a bright mid-blue roof and boot, blue ridged wheels. Fine sheen to the original paint finish.
Note this version has the blue strip immediately below the windscreen.
Shiny base and original ‘M’ stamped treaded tyres are well-shaped.
Occasional tiny mark to the paint finish and a couple of scratches to the glazing.
The pictorial box is crisp and vividly-coloured, with the correct colour spot at the end flaps. Note that one underside edge has a few little flecks of surface loss.
