Citroen H Display Van 'Philips' by French Dinky Toys, No. 587. Near mint plus/boxed. From The Coastline Collection.
Notes
Issued between 1964-67, we are pleased to offer this elusive French Dinky Citroen model for sale -especially considering its so close to mint condition, complete with the original roof sign (with complete and notably intact lugs lugs which secure it to the roof).
This fine Citroen van has a vibrant deep yellow and silver finish, red radiator detail and red wheels.
Peep through the windows or lift up the opening rear and side doors to see the nicely detailed interior! Note that all of the little plastic lugs which secure the sign on the roof are in place -n rare to find like this.
The distinctive transfer is complete, although do note that there is an (as-issued) ‘wrinkle’ in the transfer.
Small chip at the side opening hatch and a little mark or two besides.
The attractive pictorial card box is very bright and clean and includes the little serrated tab. Crisp. Small strip of surface loss at an end flap. Little tear emanating from an end flap. None of the usual rubbing or loss of colour vibrancy.
