FD557
French Dinky 557 "AMI 6" Citroen. Avocado and grey-white roof. Scarce 1st type issue with spare wheel under the bonnet. Very near mint/boxed (wear but complete). From an extensive private collection in the U.K.
Notes
This attractive Citroen model is finished in distinctive avocado green with a pale grey-white roof, wire front bumper fitting, bright concave wheels, shiny black baseplate. Detailed red interior. Spare wheel under the bonnet.
None of the expected rubbing on the roof. Just a couple of very small marks may be seen, if you scrutinise really closely. Little split in one of the original tyres.
The card picture box is complete, if slightly grubby now with a crumple at one end. Compass point-sized puncture at a small end flap and a small puncture at another end flap. Wear besides.
