Notes
A lovely first issue example of this early French Dinky truck made between 1956-59.

This version has the pierced detailing at the beam beneath the logs, and of course, it was later renumbered 897. Correct painted ridged hubs to the front cab wheels, rear four wheels are concave. A few negligible marks only. The correct early box is complete, fresh and clean, with vivid colours. Minor rubbing to the box base.Period price at a lid end.
