Notes
This sought-after Corgi commercial Bedford ‘S’ Tanker ihs an outstanding lustre and perfect transfers on both sides. Complete detailed transfer at the rear too. Slightly later issue with shaped spun rather than flat spun wheels. Supple, well-shaped original tyres. Shiny base. This is the version without suspension. Vivid day-one bright colours; not a hint of sunfading on this model:
The occasional little mark at some exposed edges. Note the few stray flecks of factory transfer at one side.
The later end flap style box is complete and strongly- coloured. Couple of small end flap tears caused by movement of the model in the comparatively flimsy box. Little minor age/handling wear besides. Complete with wrap-around packing card piece.
One of our favourite Corgi Commercial Trucks.
