French Dinky 24U Simca 9 "Aronde". Scarce issue in mid blue, white roof. Scarce type 2 issue. Near mint/boxed. From The Netherlands Collection.
Notes
This is an attractive Simca model finished in lustrous, distinctive mid-blue with a creamy-white roof, plated convex wheels. Original silver trim is gleaming bright, too. Type 2 issue from 1956-57.
A couple of body line rubs and a little marking to the front bumper. Wheels are ‘speckled’ now and the original tyres are rather grubby (one has two partial splits). Bright baseplate.
The pictorial card box is extremely crisp, fresh and strongly-coloured. Small seam split.
