D154
Dinky 154 Hillman Minx Saloon. Very, very near mint/boxed. Light tan issue. Scarce in the correctly-spotted with UNUSUAL two-tone box with GREY & YELLOW MODEL pictured! Remarkable quality from a single owner from new collection in Buckinghamshire.
Notes
A classic Dinky model in this light tan finish with cream ridged wheels. Large print on this shining baseplate with 154 stamped. Bought new and then stored away until now, this fine model is in gleaming original condition with none of the usual rubbing to the roof or chips at exposed edges.
Couple of the tiniest rubs at some side raised body lines.
As fine an example as you will ever find.
The crisp and bright pictorial box is unusual for this colour finish; and has the correct tan spot at the end flaps. Note that this box has the cerise and blue two-tone colour finish pictured on one side, and a yellow and grey version pictured on the other (never issued!). Shopkeeper’s price of 2/6 on one end flap. A wonderful, virtually shop-fresh box!
