Notes
A sought-after item indeed from the French Dinky factory issued between 1969-70 only. This particular example is in mint condition. There are no marks to the paint finish and the transfers and paper label “Liquides Inflammables” are complete. The filler caps on the top of the tank are always susceptible to damage – rarely are they found perfectly intact, as is the case with this example.
Obviously unused, this example comes complete with the spare wheel behind the cab too.
The card plinth on which the truck sits is in mint condition, with none of the usual wear to the wheel slots.
Included is the correct French Road sign, the promotional leaflet and the tow hook still in its own little sealed bag!
The outer box is very fresh, clean and bright. Tear and a repair to the small tuck-in part of one large end flap, small tear to the tuck-in part of the other large end flap. Minor handling wear besides including a crease.
A scarce model which is becoming increasingly difficult to find.
