FD522
French Dinky 522 Citroen DS 19. Rare early issue in IVORY & darkest PURPLE. Very near mint/boxed. From the 1200 model Italian collection.
Notes
First we have handled, this Citroen model is a rare version! Early issue (1959-60)finished in a delicate shade of ivory with a very very dark purple (looks almost black!) roof.
Convex wheels and a bright baseplate with the earlier 24C numbering stamped.
An exciting find!
In all original condition, there are just a few little dots visible upon close inspection.
The box is very clean, complete and bright. Quite crisp. No graffiti. Minor handling wear only.
