FD588
French Dinky 588 Berliet Beer Lorry. Very, very near mint/boxed. From a large, stunning diverse collection with many items in old shop stock condition.
Notes
From one of the largest, private collections we have ever seen, with many items bought new at the time and stored away until now. Taken as a whole, the collection provides an exciting, kaleidoscopic snapshot of popular diecast toys issued during the 1960?s -1970?s.
In close to shop-fresh condition, this Berliet Beer Lorry is complete with the detachable plastic beer barrels, stacks of bottled beers/lemonade and delicate plastic rear sign with bright lemon lettering unrubbed. Vivid deep yellow cab, red back, brown chassis, pale lemon concave metal wheels. Fine, supple tyres.
Just a couple of little marks – and that’s about it! Not often seen so nice!
The vividly-coloured crisp card box is clean, fresh and bright. Complete with the serrated tab too. Tiniest wear only.
An exceptional example.
