Citroen Breakdown Truck 'DINKY SERVICE'. Very near mint/boxed. Early issue. From The Berlin Collection.
Notes
Fine and gleaming early example of this nicely finished Citroen Breakdown vehicle, later re-numbered to 582. A lustrous finish throughout, with complete ‘DINKY SERVICE’ lettering on both sides. Bright winding handle (including the cuff), axle ends and baseplate. Spare wheel stowed behind the cab. Well-shaped tyres.
Very close to mint condition.
Little chip immediately below the windscreen. Occasional mere dot besides.
The pictorial box is bright and compete with quite a crisp feel. Little storage crease and a part-thickness seam tear.
