Matchbox Lesney 23c2 Bluebird Dauphine Caravan Pink Empty D Style Repro Box

Description

An empty reproduction Matchbox Lesney 23 c2 Bluebird Dauphine Caravan Pink Empty D Style Repro Box.

This is a Matchbox Lesney D style reproduction box for the Bluebird Dauphine Caravan. Generally found as a metallic tan colour there are two rare variations. The first issue was a metallic green corresponding the paint of the earlier issue Berkeley Cavalier Caravan that was dropped from the range in 1960. The second is the last issue of the model and it has a maroon base plate. This caravan made way for the Trailer Caravan in 1965. This box depicts a pinkish coloured model which I think is a colour variation in printing.
