Dinky Toys 173 Pontiac Parisienne
Pontiac Parisienne by Dinky Toys, No. 273. Very, very near mint/boxed with packing cellophane strip. Cast wheel issue. From The Reference Collection.
Notes
A deep lustrous metallic maroon finish on this model issued between 1969-72. Detailed yellow interior, window glazing, two retractable aerials and suspension on detailed cast wheels.
Virtually mint condition.
Buttons on base to operate the aerials. However, we do not recommend raising and retracting the aerials, since due to the age of the model, we find that sometimes they break/or lose their chrome coating).
The pictorial card box is complete and bright. Quite a crisp feel. Very small tear to the tuck-in part of one large end flap.
