C405
Corgi 405 Bedford Fire Tender 'Fire Dept'. Near mint/boxed. *Rare NON-MECHANICAL version*. Red, split screen, black ladders. From The Berlin Collection.
Notes
This is a rare non-mechanical version of the Bedford ‘FIRE DEPT’ Van finished in vibrant red with perfect lettering and logo on both sides, black ladders, flat spun wheels, and a divided windscreen.
A couple of marks to the paint finish where the ladder rests and the occasional negligible mark besides.
The early blue 405M pictorial box is crisp and brightly-coloured (a dedicated 405 box was never made for this particular model). A little handling/age wear.
Few of these non-mechanical versions were made.
