French Dinky 561
French Dinky 561 Citroen H Van 'CIBIE'. Convex wheels issue. Scarce. Near mint plus/boxed. A delightful French Dinky Van from The Cologne Collection.
Notes
An exquisite French Dinky Citroen model which makes a beautiful display piece, and in this fine condition, quite irresistible! Looking more like a period work of art than a Dinky Toy!
This Citroen H Van has a distinctive peacock blue paint finish and complete, vibrant transfers on both sides. Convex wheels (a more difficult find). Smooth original tyres run well.
Shiny baseplate. Marking nearly all confined to the black tinplate edge below the sliding door.
The picture box is complete, although showing wear now. Period prices at an end flap.
An eye-catching Dinky van made at the French factory between 1961-63.
