C290
Corgi 290 Kojak Buick. Very scarce authentic 'Hatless Kojak' issue. Very near mint/boxed. With both correct figures, detachable roof light and badge. From a lifetime collection in London.
Notes
A very sought-after early issue – this Kojak’s Buick is a bright mid-metallic bronze with 4-spoke wheels. The figure of Kojak is without a hat and also in evening dress. Note too that Crocker (in the car) is wearing a dark blue evening jacket. In the standard issue, he is wearing a light blue jacket. Little details perhaps – but very important to ensure authenticity!
A few little marks to the chrome, otherwise hard to fault.
This set comes complete with the unapplied self-adhesive badge
The card backdrop and polystyrene inner are complete, crisp and bright, with all parts intact. Very minor age grubbiness to the polystyrene.
The outer box is complete and clean with vivid graphics. No graffiti. Usual crease at box reverse where header joins the main body of the box. Minor age/ handling wear and a tiny tear to the tuck-in part of one large end flap.
