French Dinky Toys 1435 Citroen Presidentielle
Citroen Presidentielle by French Dinky Toys, No. 1435. Very near mint/boxed. Includes original flag, bonnet emblem and Instruction Leaflet. From The Woodside Collection.
Notes
A sought-after French Dinky model, this Citroen Presidentielle model has a sleek two-tone grey finish, detailed flock fawn interior with driver, bonnet mounted shield (lacks little paper label) and delicate French flag.
Number plates are complete both front and rear.
A pleasing example with a couple of negligible marks.
The box impresses with fresh colours on clean, intact card. Bright red card plinth (lightest marks where the tyres have rested). Light traces of the tape which kept the bubble lid in place. Very small area of surface loss due to removal of tape on the red plinth.
The delicate bubble casing has a little age wear/discolouration and note it has a very small bruise to a corner with a break.
Pictorial lift-off lid has bright colours on clean, sturdy card. A fresh example that has been carefully handled and stored.
Complete with the Instruction Leaflet, too.
Issued between 1970-71.
