Notes

An attractive early French Dinky racing car in mid-green with smooth black tyres on red ridged wheels. Gloss black rivetted baseplate with Auto Union stamped. Correct that this post-war issue would have no driver. Racing number 1 in red circle on both sides.
A handsome example.

Would have been supplied from a shopkeeper’s trade box of six.
