FD24C
French Dinky 24C Citroen DS 19. Near mint/boxed. Scarce issue in ivory & aubergine. Convex wheels.
Notes
A striking and scarce Citroen model from the French Dinky factory – this model has an ivory finish with a deep aubergine roof, early issue so no window glazing. Convex wheels (front wheels are a little tarnished), bright base with 24 C stamped. Smooth running original white tyres.
In all original condition.
Pleasing sheen, this example makes a fine display piece. A scarce model, indeed.
Mark at roof edge and another at a front wing. Dot or two besides. None of the expected marking at bumpers – and the roof is unrubbed!
The box is clean, crisp and strongly-coloured. Plenty of spring in those end flaps. No tears or graffiti. Minor age wear only.
