FD29E
French Dinky 29E Isobloc Autocar. 3rd type in red & silver. Very near mint/not individually boxed. Scarce! From a beautiful, single-owner collection, some 25 years in the making.
Notes
Third type version of this attractive French Dinky bus in red and silver, with a ribbed roof and raised side detail. Delightful example which has survived really well! Issued between 1953-55, scale 1:70.
Early 3rd type issue without cross-hatching to roof interior.
A lovely example with just a little marking head-on, otherwise hard to fault. Presents well with a fine lustre. Supple tyres are the originals – with ‘M’ embossed.
Not an easy find!
