FD589
French Dinky 589 Berliet Crash Truck 'DEPANNAGE'. Red with white lettering. Very near mint/boxed. Another scarce item from The European Collection.
Notes
Issued between 1965-69, this Breakdown Truck is finished in vibrant 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.
Obviously never played with, this model is in very close to mint condition. Little rub to a rear detail and a little edge mark nearby.
These relatively frail card boxes rarely fare well. This example is brightly-coloured and complete with the serrated tab (although holding on precariously). – so this example has fared better than many! Minor handling wear (creases) and a small start of a tear at an end flap. No graffiti or punctures.
