FD24L
French Dinky 529 2 CV Vespa 400 (with windows). From 1959. Mint/boxed. From the Italian collection.
Notes
An endearing little 2CV model finished in mid-blue with a dark grey roof, convex wheels, smooth black tyres, silver trim, windows. A very fine example, in mint, unused condition.
Note that due to being in one fixed place for a very long period of time, one of the tyres has a flat spot.
This is an early Issue (1959), later it would be renamed 529.
A very fine box with excellent strong colours on crisp, barely handled card. Resistant end flaps. Delightful original price label on one box face.
Minor wear only.
