French Dinky Toys 582 Citroen Breakdown Truck 'DINKY TOYS'
Citroen Breakdown Truck 'DINKY TOYS' by French Dinky Toys, No. 582. Very near mint/boxed. Late issue with concave wheels & black plastic tow hook.
Notes
A fine gleaming example of this nicely finished Citroen Breakdown vehicle, made between 1956-59 under this re-numbering. Such a lustrous finish throughout, with complete ‘DINKY SERVICE’ lettering on both sides and a very bright winding handle. This truck has rarely seen the light of day. Late issue with red concave wheels and a black plastic tow hook.
In wonderful, virtually mint condition -just a few little rust spots on the base – the rest of the metal components are bright and shiny.
The pictorial box is very clean, fresh and bright. Tiny slit on one side and minor age wear besides.
One of our favourite French Dinky models!
