C468
Corgi 468 London Transport Routemaster Bus "Madame Tussaud's". 1970 issue with clear stairs, window box. Very near mint/boxed. Scarce! From The 25 Year Collection.
Notes
Issued during 1970, this is an early Routemaster Bus with all the nice details not present in the later issues. Complete labels throughout. Cast wheels. Conductor and driver. Ribbed roof (without the usual box rubs!), jewelled headlights. Cream interior, clear staircase.
Couple of negligible dots to the paint finish and minor wear to the destination board label at the rear.
The cellophane-fronted box is bright, clean and fresh, with intact original cellophane. Very minor wear only.
Period price label at an end flap.
Not an easy variation to find.
