Notes
Issued during 1968. This is one of the fabled ‘POCH’ French Dinky models assembled in Spain, finished in a distinctive bright mid-blue with a detailed red interior, white steering wheel, and the correct ‘PIRELLI’ tyres. Number plates front and rear. Standard (i.e. not Poch issue) is found in Duck Egg Blue or cream.This POCH issue is in near mint condition with a few minor marks only.
Shiny base has a minor tarnished spot or two.
The colourful POCH box is finished in bright yellow and is complete with the little serrated tag still firmly in place.
Minor handling wear only, this box still has a crisp feel. Little start of a tear. Note the printed POCH lettering and details in Spanish at end flaps.
An exciting find!
