FD584
French Dinky 584 Berliet Covered Lorry. Yellow with green tilt. Very near mint/boxed. From a beautiful, single-owner collection, some 25 years in the making.
Notes
This collector wanted only the best examples ? always a discerning buyer of the finest models he could find. After over 25 years, he has now decided to part with items from his own extensive collection.
This Berliet Covered Lorry has a fresh, all original, deep yellow finish, with very pale lemon concave metal wheels, and a green plastic intact removable tilt (with all posts notably intact). Gleaming metal parts and as-new original tyres. Very fine!
Two or three little marks only. A mark of just how unused it is – note the unscuffed paint on the tow hook (original and not a later sweep of paint!).
The bright and fresh-looking pictorial card box is complete and clean. Crisp. Note the storage puncture on one side which has pressed back into place. Another partial thickness indentation on the box underside. Area of surface loss at an end flap. Minor wear besides.
