FD589
French Dinky 589 Berliet Crash Truck 'DEPANNAGE'. Red with white lettering. Near mint plus/boxed. Very nice box with serrated tag. Another scarce item from The Canadian Collection.
Notes
Issued between 1965-69, this Breakdown Truck is finished in vibrant deep red, cream interior, shiny concave wheels, grey winch wheel, black plastic hook, spare tyre stowed behind the cab. Roof light. Window glazing. Smooth-running original radial tyres look as-new.
Obviously never played with, this model is in close to mint condition. Just a few minor marks only.
These relatively frail card boxes rarely fare well. This example is one of the best we have seen; brightly-coloured, clean and fresh-looking, and complete with the serrated tab Very minor handling wear only. No graffiti or punctures.
