FD897
French Dinky 897 Willeme Log Carrier Truck. Near mint plus/boxed. Scarce later issue with UNPIERCED BEAM DETAILING.
Notes
This version with unpierced detailing at the beam beneath the logs, was issued towards the end of the production run (1959-71). Deep orange cab, yellow back with metal spindles and realistic log load! Concave, metal yellow painted wheels.
As-new original tyres and that includes the spare. Very bright metal parts.
In all original condition throughout.
A few minor marks mostly at cab sides.
The striped Supertoys box is very clean, fresh and bright! Small end crumple. Lovely vibrant colours and none of the expected edge scuffing. Minimal wear only. No splits or graffiti.
‘Meccano Controle’ stamp on the inside of the box lid.
Harder to find than the standard pierced trailer version.
