Notes
Issued between 1961-65, this sought-after French Dinky Citroen model is in excellent plus, all original condition with a shining light blue and white paint finish, blue metal wheels, suspension and window glazing.
Looking as-new original tyres and a bright baseplate. All metal parts, including axle ends, are untarnished.
Chipping at a wheel arch and a few little chips/small marks besides. Comes with the little plastic milk crates still in their original clear plastic wrapping (a little torn now).
The distinctive blue and yellow picture box is clean and brightly-coloured. No graffiti. Split to one corner of the lid and one corner of the base. Notable rubbing to the box base underside.
Dinky Quality Control stamps on the inside of the box lid.
A difficult model to find.
