C851
Corgi 851 Magic Roundabout Train. Very near mint/boxed, with original sealed packet of blue nylon rope. From The Monty Calme Collection.
Notes
Issued 1972-74.
A delightful nostalgic piece, this model was inspired by The Magic Roundabout (Le Manège Enchanté) television series, which was extremely popular during the mid ’60’s until the mid -late’70’s.
The Magic Roundabout Train has the familiar characters of Mr. Rusty and Basil in the train along with the passengers Rosalie, Paul and of course Dougal, too.
The Train, Carriage and Van are colourful and complete with paper labels and all delicate parts intact. The Van containing Dougal has the original polystyrene packing piece.
Tiny wear only.
The large window box is clean and bright, looking fresh with intact original cellophane window. Light crease on box reverse and very minor wear besides.
One of the best we have seen, this set comes complete with the little sealed packet of blue nylon rope.
