C233
Corgi 233 Heinkel Economy Car. Scarce in metallic PEACOCK BLUE. Very, very near mint/boxed (extra detail printed). From 'The Monty Calme' Corgi Collection.
Notes
Only the second we have ever handled in this colour finish. A very difficult find in this distinctive metallic peacock blue shade. Flat spun hubs. Shiny spun wheels, and fine original tyres. Yellow interior. In all original, virtually mint condition.
A couple of negligible pin pricks away from mint.
The picture box is very fresh and bright example. Plenty of end flap spring. Note the additional print:
“Colour of contents..”
Note too the scribbled out name on one surface (probably reserved for a certain Mr. Maguire" – or similar – and the shopkeeper has written his surname on a non-picture face).
