Notes
Issued between 1961-65, this sought-after French Dinky Citroen model is in close to mint condition with a fresh light blue and white paint finish, blue metal wheels, suspension and window glazing. Looking as-new original tyres and a shiny baseplate. All metal parts, including axle ends, are shiny. Comes with the full complement of 30 little plastic milk crates.
Note the remnants of the original tape which kept the crates in situ on the underside of the truck.
So prone to chipping this model shows barely a mark. Close inspection finds a few subtle touch-ins. Super-detailing on the front bumper.
The attractive blue and yellow picture box is clean, bright and split-free. Light wear nearly all confined to the underside of the box base (shelf rubbing).
