DF1024823D Auto Union in Green with no number NM/o  A lovely example of the post-war French version of the Auto-Union.  There is a slight rub on one side. otherwise completely mint £400

DF1034924A Chrysler New Yorker in Metalllic Blue M/M  The scarcest of all the colour variations of this superb French Dinky Toy in perfect condition. (SOLD)

DF1035724D Plymouth Belvedere in White with a Blue Roof VN/M  The scarcest of all the 24D versions and is in superb condition.  There is very slight oxidation to the chrome hubs a nick on one of the door handles and another on one of the rear fins.  Otherwise it is as good an example as you will find, bearing in mind that the castings of these late 25Ds are always a bit rough.  The box is mint.  Picture 2 £575

DF1037124O Studebaker Commander in Red with metal wheels E/o In 1949 the French factory imported two UK moulds of 39 series cars, the 39f Studebaker Commander and the 39a Packard.  They were given French baseplates with 'Fabrique en France' engarved on them and unique colour schemes.  They were shod originally with the painted metal wheels of the time.  The Packard was produced for less than a year and so is extremely scarce.  The Studebaker was produced for a year or so longer and the last versions were given hubs and rubber tyres but is still very scarce.  This example has some rubs on raised edges and some nicks on one side but is still in exceptional condition for such a rare animal.  You won't find another in a hurry!

DF1010724N Citroen 11BL in Met Gold with red hubs E/o  One of the mythical first versions of the Citroen with the small rear window and wide-spaced radiator grill.   This one has the sought after red hubs and is in superb condition.   (SOLD)

DF1037324N Citroen 11BL 1st type in Black with yellow hubs E/o  Very scarce first type with small rear window,wide-spaced radiator grill and tinplate front bumper.  There are very minor marks on the fragile paint of the period and it is one of the best examples I have seen for a long time.

DF1037424S Simca Sport in Duck-egg blue M/o  The scarce late colour variation in almost perfect condition.   There is a needle prick on the front wing that is almost impossible to see.  Quite superb  £275

DF1037524T2 Citroen 2CV in Grenat/cream hubs and 3 rear lamps VNM/o  Superb example.  One of the rear lamps has a tiny nick but otherwise mint. £125

Df1032024T1 Citroen 2cv in Grey/cream hubs M/o  These little chaps are difficult to find in mint condition as there were sold in six-pack boxes.  This is superb and so very French! £155

DF1036024v Buick Roadmaster in Cream with a Deep Pink roof E/E  This is one of the rarest of all French Dinky Toys.  It was once thought to be a colour trial but one or two have turned up in the UK and the latest thinking is that it was issued for the UK market in very, very small quantities.  It is thought to have been issued in 1955 at roughly the same period as the cream version with the metallic blue roof.  The roof interior has a similar criss-cross pattern inside.   Seven years ago one turned up at the Collectoys auction in France and was sold for 5,794 euros!!  Here is your chance to own this fabulous model at a rather more reasonable price! There are a couple of small nicks on each door and a nick on a rear wing.  The remainder of the model is mint.  (SOLD)
