Note from the owner:
“I remember getting this one from Nigel Loveland (ex-Corgi Sales Director) and remember taking it out fresh from a shrink wrap of 6!”
This popular Austin Mini Van was issued between 1964-69. Obviously, this item has barely been out of its box just a couple of times ever! Intact aerial. The van has a wonderful original lustre, jewelled headlights and suspension on shaped spun wheels. Complete POLICE labels on both sides. It comes with both original figures, complete with original lead!
As it left the factory with a little mark at one of the rear opening doors and another at roof edge Few tiny pin pricks besides.
The detailed and colourful inner card stand is in virtually pristine condition with no tears at the wheel slots or where the figures are slotted. Light top edge ‘bend’ from storage.
The outer box is exceptionally crisp, bright and fresh. Day-one bright colours. Comes with the little card packing piece too.
Corgi original Pric eLabel with Corgi Dog logo also included.
A beautiful example on display.
