Notes
A very popular Corgi model – this example is in all original, mint condition which gives the impression of unsold, old shop stock. . The left-hand drive version has a complete detailed bonnet label, (a beauty – with none of the usual wear), complete door numbers, fine “Nairobi” label, and a gleaming scarlet red paint finish, chrome bumpers, wheels, baseplate, and sparkling jewelled headlights!
We have not seen better.
It comes complete with rhino, as well as the white card wrap-around packing piece and the* yellow card packing piece that fits over the wheel on the roof*.
The colourful card plinth on which car and rhino sit is a most attractive display piece. Crisp, as-new feel to the undamaged card. Very, very nice!
Vividly-coloured backdrop with no tears at wheel slots. Both end pull tabs are present. Box reverse has lots of information about the “Beetle”. Pristine.
The outer box is brightly-coloured and crisp too with no tears. Lovely deep colours. Light crease and tiny wear besides. Period price at an end flap and faint residue where a price label has been removed.
Model specific Leaflet is included, too.
as well as the card packing:
One of the best examples you will ever find.
