Notes
Issued between 1968-71, this is a scarce t.v. inspired French Dinky toy, featuring The Knights of the Sky’ (Les Chevalier du Ciel)! A difficult model to find.
The Renault Sinpar model is finished in khaki with blue and red original detailing. Item comes complete with the original aerial and gear stick. Painted metal concave wheels, folding tin windscreen. Bonnet-mounted camera has the original paper label applied. Front and rear number plates.
Looks completely unused. Few tiny marks visible if scrutinised.
Correct that both plastic running figures are glued to the base of the colourful, fresh and clean plinth. Couple of light creases. Looks virtually as-new. Both end tabs to the plinth are present and this set presents nicely with the colourful backdrop.
The decorative pictorial card outer box is clean, bright and complete. Some storage crumpling and there is a handling tear to the tuck-in part of one large end flap. Little seam tear besides. No graffiti. Couple of very small part-punctures on one non-picture side.
Included is the original Informative Leaflet:
