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:
“This model came from the USA . It was a dealer promotional model with this gold-plated trim, instead of the usual chrome. I have never seen another one.”
A rare item, and the first we have ever seen.
Ruby-red Mercedes 600 Pullman model is an arresting sight with these vibrant, deep gold-plated bumpers, radiator and bonnet emblem. Working windscreen wipers.
Occasional little mark and note the small paint miss above a rear wheel arch. Well-shaped original tyres.
Crisp clean and bright card box has minor age/handling wear only. Instruction Leaflet is included.
