FD60C
French Dinky 60C Super 'G' Constellation Lockheed Aeroplane. Near mint plus/boxed. From The Heart of England collection.
Notes
An impressive Dinky aircraft (1:90 scale) in unused condition with an original sleek silver-grey finish, and all four three blade propellors intact and rust-free.
Delicate transfers are complete on one side, although as is so often the case, there is just a small portion missing on the other side (this example has fared better than many we have seen).
‘F-B HBX’ transfers are complete as are the ‘Air France’ transfers on the tailwings and sides.
Upon close scrutiny, one may find the occasional tiny mark – one can generally find a mark if on elooks long enough!
The distinctive striped ‘Supertoys’ box is in fine condition with vibrant colours, no splits or punctures on the clean bright card. Shopkeeper’s pricing at one side of the lid.
Issued between 1956-59 as 60C until its re-numbering to 892.
One to treasure!
