FD885
French Dinky 885 Saviem Sinpar Steel Carrier. Very, very near mint/boxed, complete with upper & lower packing. Scarce. Another superb model from the 1200 model Italian collection.
Notes
This desirable commercial French Dinky truck is in fine, all original condition, notably complete with both detachable wing mirrors (including the small reflective pieces) and delicate rear lamp. All steel rods are present too and are magnetised in place. The black plastic stanchions which help to secure the load are intact too (so easily broken). All in all, this is a very fine and rare item from the French Dinky factory:
Couple of barely visible dots/rubs at a raised edge detail.
Just superb!
The colourfully illustrated lift-off lid card box has day-one bright, fresh colours on crisp carefully handled card.
Stored well so colour vibrancy has been preserved. A small area of surface loss on the box lid where a price label has been removed.
Inside the box you will find both card packing pieces. No tears:
An exceptional French Dinky commercial.
