Notes
*This three-piece Gift Set was issued between 1969-71 and comprises:
1) Volkswagen Breakdown Truck finished in white with cast wheels. Racing Club/Corgi Dog logo paper labels on both sides (tiny age grubbiness). Hinged red plastic tool box lid opens and inside all the plated tools may be seen.
Looks unused with the occasional negligible mark.
2) Red Racing Car Trailer has cast wheels. Virtually mint.
3) Corgi 159 Cooper-Maserati in yellow and white. Cast wheels. Blue plastic driver with a white helmet. Slightly age-affected racing number on the bonnet. Little mark on the bonnet.
Vacuum formed white plastic inner has a tiny nick. This packing is so fragile and easily damaged by the contents (nearly always found with several tears).
Outer cellophane fronted box is very bright and clean, with a crisp feel.
Little corner edge tear. The cellophane (we believe) is original but at some time has been re-glued into place. Little label on the box base.
