Corgi 1142 Holmes Wrecker Vehicle. Very near mint/boxed. Early box. With Retailer card and both mechanics. Early version with MATTE GOLD BOOMS. From The South London Collection.
Notes
An impressively detailed truck from Corgi.
With a bright red and white paint finish, perfect ‘Holmes Wrecker’ transfers on both sides, pale matte gold booms, unpainted metal parts, intact wing mirrors with reflective stickers still in place, nice straight horns on the black cab roof. Red plastic hazard ‘light’. Both spare tyres are still in place. Complete chevron paper label at the rear of the model (tiny wear). Model looks unused with only the occasional minor mark, probably picked up in storage.
The early blue and yellow window box is clean and bright, with a notably intact original cellophane window. Period price on the box face.
Complete with the rare Retailer Card!
Pristine polystyrene tray with a bright Corgi dog paper label. Both mechanics are included.
