FD597
French Dinky 597 Coventry Climax Fork Lift Truck. Near mint plus/boxed, with upper and lower card packing pieces. Very clean, bright box! From The Reference Collection.
Notes
An extremely fresh and bright example complete with the familiar fawn driver figure (not even a chip on his head).
Very few little marks, mostly at the rear; tempted to say ‘as-made’ since the model looks so fresh, unused and vibrant, as if it has barely been out of its box.
The lift-off lid card box has day-one fresh and bright colours. Certainly no rips or seam tears/repairs. An outstanding example. Minor storage ‘bruise’ at one edge.
Comes complete with the upper and lower card packing insert.
Quality Control Stamp on the inside of the lid.
Hard to find this good!
