Notes
An exquisite French Dinky Citroen model which makes a beautiful display piece, and in this fine condition, quite irresistable! One of our favourites from this collection, and looking more like a period work of art than a Dinky Toy!
This Citroen H Van has a distinctive peacock blue paint finish and complete transfers on both sides. Concave wheels.
Shiny baseplate. Smooth original tyres are as-new. Few negligible marks to the paint finish (if one examines it most minutely).
The picture box is a fitting partnerCrisp, clean, bright and fresh. mInute rub at an end flap where a period price has been erased largely.
An eye-catching Dinky van made at the French factory between 1961-63. Surely one of the best surviving examples.
