Dinky Toys 342 Motocart
Motocart by Dinky Toys, No. 342. Very near mint/boxed. With packing. Super example from The Reference Collection.
Notes
Not often seen in this virtually old shop stock condition!
This later numbering of the classic Dinky Motocart (1954-61) is a very fine unused example finished in mid-green and mid tan with red wheels and the familiar metal light tan workman figure behind the wheel.
Very close to mint condition with barely a mark.
The wonderfully vibrant deeply-coloured card picture box has very light wear only. Nice to see the original card packing wedge still present (nearly always discarded).
For comparison only, please take a look at this picture which shows three versions from this collection with this mid-green version on the left:
