FD24R
French Dinky 24R Peugeot 203. Rare early issue in light blue-grey with MATCHING WHEELS. Small rear window casting. Very, very near mint/not individually boxed. From The Canadian Collection.
Notes
Issued in trade boxes of six, this Peugeot model has a pleasing* light blue-grey finish, matching cast wheels*, smooth black tyres, silver trim. Small rear window casting, cross-hatched roof interior, correct that this issue from 1953-55 has no cast filler cap detail.
Superb example from this collector with ( we believe) a hand-written note from the original owner in French, furled inside.
Little rough casting at the rear, otherwise difficult to fault.
Bright baseplate and bright axles including the ends.
_Exceptional and scarce piece. _
