D273
Dinky 273 Mini Minor Van 'RAC'. Near mint plus/boxed.
Notes
Issued between 1965-70, this Mini Van has a vibrant blue and white finish, red interior, bright shaped spun wheels with suspension, and a dark graphite grey base.
RAC paper labels are bright, complete on one side, one small nick to the other. The delicate transfers on the opening back doors are complete and intact. ‘Road Service’ sign on the roof has a tiny edge nick.
Looking at the paint finish, one will find a couple of tiny negligible dots. Gleaming bright and original paint finish make this an attractive display piece.
The colourful pictorial box is crisp, bright and clean. Day-one bright colours. Looks like unsold shop stock. Hard to find this nice! One faint crease and a shopkeeper’s pencilled price at an end flap. Tiny handling wear besides.
