Notes
A beautiful classic Dinky aeroplane in unused condition with a sleek and shining silver and white finish, perfect ‘Air France’ and ‘F-BGNY’ transfers.
Early issue with Issued between 19621-65. Indeed, the Dinky stamp inside the lid dates this model from December 1961 – so one of the first made. English factory production with 60F and 997 cast on the underside of the wings.
Transfers at the sides (windows and strip) have a couple of minor flecks. Tail fin transfers are complete.
So often the white finish on these models can become mottled or discoloured over time -pleased to say that the white finish is original throughout and gleaming bright. Few tiny dots to the paint finish.
Beautiful display item.
The lift-off lid pictorial box is clean, vivid and fresh with no splits or graffiti. Light wear only. Nice to see that this example has the card wrap-around packing piece too.
