Notes
Issued between 1956-61. This model is in all-original condition, and a more difficult find in this eye-catching rich cream finish (not the lemon-yellow finish!). Version without silver fluting on the bonnet. Flat spun wheels (note that one is a little rough cast), and a shining tinplate baseplate. A bright paint finish and original silver trim at radiator and bumpers. As-new, fine tread original tyres.
Barely a mark to the paint finish!
The early blue boxes is crisp, and complete, with intense colours and plenty of spring in the end flaps. Only the most minor wear.
Colourful promotional booklet and pink Corgi Club Membership Form.
A beautiful early Corgi model on display.
