Notes
This scarce early issue has yellow metal wheels (nearly always found with red metal wheels) and notably intact metal tines -(later issues had plastic tines).
Such a day-one lustre to the glossy bright red paint finish!.The carriage holding the tines turns well too. The ‘teeth’ are all present and straight. Perfect ‘Massey-Ferguson’ labels at both sides.
IN all original condition – you will find the occasioanl mark to the paint finish. Minor ‘bowing’ to a couple of the tines.
The large and colourful, lift-off lid box is brightly- coloured with a little handling/age wear (little creasing, little crumple and a small fleck of surface loss). No splits, tears or repairs.
It comes with two original card packing pieces, too. Note that a spare elastic band (aka drive belt) is in place on the top packing piece. Comes complete with printed Corgi Informative Leaflet & Corgi Club Membership Form.
A wonderfully detailed and intricate early Corgi model.
