French Dinky 582
French Dinky 35A/582 Citroen Breakdown Truck 'DINKY SERVICE'. Very near mint/boxed. Scarce Transition Box. Beautiful example from The Berlin Collection.
Notes
Such a fine and gleaming early example of this nicely finished Citroen Breakdown vehicle, presented in the transition issue box. Such a lustrous finish throughout, with perfect ‘DINKY SERVICE’ lettering on both sides. Very bright winding handle, axle ends and baseplate. Convex wheels. Spare wheel stowed behind the cab. Looks like old shop stock; such a beautiful and vibrant lustre:
The harder to find dual-numbered, transition pictorial box is clean and complete, with strong colours. Light crease and tiny wear.
One of our favourite French Dinky models and in this condition, a must for your collection!
