Atlas Dinky Toys 32CB Panhard Titan-Tankoplegger "Naphtex"

The Dinky Toys 32CB Panhard Titan Tank Trailer "Naphtex" is one of the most recognizable French Dinky models from the 1950s. This scale model was produced by Meccano France between 1953 and 1959 and depicts the robust Panhard Titan truck with a streamlined tank trailer, finished in the striking blue livery with "Naphtex" lettering.

The model reflected the post-war French petrol and oil transporters, who were increasingly using modern tankers to transport fuel across the country.

Characteristic of this Dinky model are the Panhard Titan's finely detailed cab, the metal tank trailer with realistic curves, and the meticulous printing. The scale model exuded not only solidity but also the industrial progress of the 1950s.

This particular example is in very good condition, complete with the Dutch brochure and the original box. The presence of the box and documentation is particularly valuable: many models have been loosely played with over the years, making complete sets with original packaging rare.

For Dinky Toys collectors or enthusiasts of historic model vehicles, the 32CB "Naphtex" Tank Trailer represents a beautiful example of craftsmanship, nostalgia, and French industrial design in miniature.
