FD24X
French Dinky 24X Ford "Vedette 54". Light grey. Very near mint/boxed. From The French Dinky section of The Reference Collection.
Notes
Issued between 1954-56. Very pleasing, lustrous grey finish on this Ford Vedette car with a silver trim, matching metal wheels, and white tyres. Shiny baseplate (minor spidering) has 24X stamped. A fine display piece with such a glossy finish:
Mere negligible dot or two (if you inspect it absolutely minutely), but do note that one of the tyres has flat spots and crazing and would benefit from a replacement.
The colourful and clean picture box has a crisp feel. Shows minimal handling, although there is a small area of surface loss at an end flap. Nice to see the original, initial ‘G’ denoting colour of model stamped at an end flap.
