C107
Corgi 107 Batboat. Early 'tin fin' issue. Mint (still with original rubber bands)/boxed. Complete with towing attachment (often missing!) In very nice outer box. From The MBU Collection.
Notes
This is the early, more desirable issue (1967-70) of the Batboat with a tinplate fin. Complete paper labels on both sides of the boat. Complete chrome dashboard, uncracked light blue screens, both seated figures of Batman and Robin and a beautifully detailed tinplate fin (later issues were plastic). Bright gold trailer with detailed cast wheels is mark-free. Old shop stock quality piece, with original bands still in place. :
Notably, this item comes complete with the black towing hook accessory piece which could be used to attach it to the first issue Batmobile (issued without towhook). So easily lost!
The delightfully detailed card box is clean, brightly-coloured and fresh with crisp clear graphics on smooth rarely handled card. Crease on a non-picture sides and a very minor surface tear at a seam.
Operating Instructions are printed on on both box sides.
This 1st issue Batboat is always a desirable item and an absolute must-have piece in any Batman collection!
