FD889U
French Dinky 889 Berliet Parisienne Autobus. Near mint (but several little touch-ins)/boxed, with leaflet. Door mechanism works well! From The Lancashire Collection.
Notes
Finished in deep glossy green and greenish-white, this attractive and detailed French Dinky bus was made between 1965-70. All labels are complete and intact (couple of very minor creases), bright red detailed interior, jewelled headlights and metal concave green wheels. The opening doors work well too!
Closest inspection reveals a few touch-ins on the model (both green and grey ). Discreet so not obvious.
The detailed attractive pictorial box is complete with no splits or graffiti. The box base underside is vivid. Residue of the original sellotape at box lid ends still visible.
Nice to see the original leaflet is present.
