Notes

This collector wanted only the best examples in his collection ? always a discerning buyer of the finest examples he could find. After over 25 years, he has now decided to part with items from his own extensive collection.
This is one of them.
In superb unused condition, in the slightly rarer yellow and green finish, complete with both glazier pieces stowed, this is a fine French Dinky model. Obviously an unplayed with example that has spent the last 50 years in its box.

In very near mint condition. The ‘Saint Gobain’ and ‘Miroitier’ transfers are complete. Little mark at a wheel arch and the occasional dot besides. Very fresh, clean and bright baseplate. Smooth running original tyres (some surface splitting to one) and spare stowed underneath. Bright metal parts. In all original condition with a little, very light ‘pitting’ to the finish of the mirror piece stowed on one surface.
Not often found with 2 leaflets! One in English, the other in French. Protective film on the mirror finish on one side.

The dual-numbered box is bright, clean and crisp. Small stain on one face and a scribbled out price at an end flap.
