French Dinky 35A
French Dinky 35A Citroen Breakdown Truck 'DINKY SERVICE'. Near mint plus/boxed. Early issue. From The Cumbrian Collection.
Notes
A pleasing, all original paint finish on this popular Dinky Breakdown Truck!Gleaming bright early example which was later re-numbered to 582. Complete ‘DINKY SERVICE’ lettering on both sides, a shiny winding handle, and baseplate. Spare wheel stowed behind the cab.
Two small chips near a headlight. Otherwise, hard to fault!
Lovely glossy paint finish shows that this example has been kept tucked away in its box for decades!
The pictorial box is brightly-coloured with all end flaps intact. Really minor wear and a tiny puncture as well as a crease (top surface). No graffiti.
A difficult find in this condition.
