Notes
From an exacting collector’s impressive array of Dinky racing cars, this is the later “shark nose” version (yellow triangle at the front) – and a most unusual combination with blue ridged wheels!
A wonderful example of this rare variation!
Fine sheen throughout and the racing driver is especially well covered in a blemish-free, glossy original paint.
If one is looking to fault it, one could note the slight underspray of paint (factory) beneath a bonnet detail (hard to see unless you view the car from below), and at a rear edge (again you have to look for it). A couple of the axle ends would benefit from a careful clean.
Such an impressive display piece!
The crisp, fresh box looks a fitting partner with only the most miniscule handling wear! None of the usual rubbing at edges. Vibrant colours!
Shopkeeper’s pencilled price at an end flap.
A fine example of surely one of the most difficult Ferrari models to find. In this condition, you could easily imagine picking it off the shopkeeper’s shelf circa 1960!
