Notes
Issued between 1961-64, this is a rare and sought-after Gift Set!
This dazzling gold-plated set comprises:
The few examples that come to the market place nearly always have models with a poor, heavily pitted paint finish. The comparatively fragile boxes are often in a very poor state. This example has fared very well indeed in both respects.
1) 224 Bentley Continental, with only light surface pitting to the finish (these models are nearly always found with a poor finish). Intact bonnet emblem, red interior, spun wheels. Jewelled front and rear lights. Original, as-new grey tyres.
2) 229 Chevrolet Corvair, with only light surface pitting to the finish, red interior. Smooth-running original tyres.Very light surface pitting.
3) 234 Ford Consul. With very light surface pitting, red interior, and fine tyres. Gold plated base too!
All three cars sit within a two-tier card tray which is bright and clean, looking fresh with barely any wear whatever!
Outer sleeve is bright and deeply-coloured, complete with no graffiti. Intact original cellophane window notably. Small edge tear and a heavy storage crease (very light surface tear at this site). Minor wear besides.
Included are 2 still-sealed Accessory Packs:
