MECCANO-DINKY TOYS - France - metal & bakelite (1) - Lot 442
MECCANO-DINKY TOYS - France - metal & bakelite (1) RARISSIME DINKY TOYS" EASEL Extremely rare piece of POS, circa 1956 Red & black. This is the ancestor of the "toblerone" DINKY-TOYS ! This easel, made of metal letters fixed on a matching rod, could be put on the retailer's counter or on display shelves. It rests on 2 black bakelite legs, pierced to the size of the metal rods it holds on either side. Some minor paint missing at the base of some letters. This "brand recall", 35 cm long and 9 cm high, is photographed on page 229 of the book co-signed by Claude Wagner and Jacques Dujardin. It is, to our knowledge, the only document that shows this authentic piece of POS, for the first time offered for sale at auction. NB: on one of the pictures, a recovery van is shown to better apprehend the dimensions of the easel. It is not included in lot 442.
