C453
Corgi 453 Commer "WALLS" Refrigerator Van. Near mint plus/boxed. Nice early box with colour promotional booklet. From 'The Monty Calme' Corgi Collection.
Notes
This attractive Corgi van was made during 1956-60. This version has a light blue cab, cream back and a detailed cast roof.
Lettering and the Walls logo are fine on both sides (save for a tiny m=nick to the logo on one side). Note that the cream background is dark on one side. Few little flecks to the cream background on the other (lighter) side. Shiny baseplate and flat spun wheels. Fine original tyres. Couple of tiny touch-ins may be seen on the cab roof under a magnifying glass.
The early blue picture box is in crisp, clean and brightly-coloured. Card looks barely handled. Minor handling wear only. A neatly folded fresh and clean, folded colour leaflet is included. Note the faint circular stamp (probably a period shop stamp) at an end flap.
