Notes
The Monty Calme landmark Corgi Collection, covering the width and breadth of Corgi models amassed over decades by an exuberant collector. The Monty Calme collection is a truly astonishing gathering of the best of Corgi models and ephemera, including rare and unique pieces and point of sale items. The largest collection we have ever seen.
Monty says: “A colour trial Marina I bought from an ex-Corgi employee”
The Morris Marina model was issued in two different colour finishes, namely a metallic reddish-brown, and also metallic lime green. Issued 1971-73. This white shade was never issued! A unique item therefore:
Rivetted base with reassuring flecks of white at the rivets.
Shiny chrome, window glazing, jewelled headlights, opening doors, red interior. whizzwheels.
