Occasional micro-dot away from mint.
Late paler yellow box is complete and quite an unusual variation. This box was actually intended for a Dinky 188 Caravan model. However, this two- tone model was replaced by 117 – this must have been one of the last remaining boxes and a printed label 117 was placed over the original numbering throughout. A little handling wear including a few flecks of surface loss and a little light staining on the box top surface.
Quite a rarity!
