C349
Corgi 349 Morris Mini Minor 'Pop Art'. Very near mint/boxed. Very scarce item in a spectacular box!
Notes
One of the most prized Corgi models, we are delighted to offer this example in superb, close to mint condition.
Correctly finished in orange-red with suspension on detailed cast wheels. The highly decorative transfers are complete/nearly complete throughout (very small portion on the bonnet has flaked off). Note too that this model has the correct horizontal body line on the front wing and patent number (not patent applied) on the base. These details ensure that this model is a Mini Mostest and not a later decorated red Mini Corgi 226.
Not a trace of sunfading on this most decorated Corgi car! Indeed, it has obviously had occasional and careful handling only, since the delicate transfers are so easy to damage. The transfers on both sides, including the ‘MOSTEST’ lettering, and the large roof transfer, are perfect and so vibrant!
As far as the paint finish is concerned, this model is virtually mint with just a little rough casting near the headlight driver’s side and under close scrutiny there is a little extra dab of red paint at this site. None of the expected chipping at jewelled front headlights or the rear light detail. No chipping at roof edge.
The correct colourfully illustrated card box is in superb, pristine condition!
One of the most highly-prized Corgi items in close to mint/boxed, original condition!
