French Dinky 24V
French Dinky 24V Buick Roadmaster. Two tone blue 1st type with silver-blue wheels. Very near mint/boxed. Scarce issue from the Cumbrian Collection.
Notes
This is a scarce version of the handsome Buick model finished in deep sky blue with a midnight blue roof. This is an an early issue (1954-56) and a most unusual find with original convex wheels in silver-blue. Early issue so no cross-hatching on the roof interior.
Shiny baseplate generally but a few tarnished spots. Original tyres are rather grubby now, although well-shaped..
Few tiny marks and the lightest suggestion of a rub on the roof.
The box is complete with excellent strong colours and quite a crisp feel. Light age/handling wear and the tiniest start of a tear.
