Notes
Bought new and stored away until now, a stash of classic Dinky models has just come into stock from Texas.
This fine Dinky car was made between 1958-63, in two different two-tone colour finishes.
This issue has a fresh original blue and turquoise paint finish.


Tiniest mark on the roof, but probably as-made, this is an outstanding unused example and a rare find in this condition.
The pictorial box is a fitting partner; crispest card, vivid day-one bright colours, absolutely clean and unruffled, with the correct colour spot. Hard to prise open the crisp end flaps, this box has been opened a couple of times only ever! A real little gem.
