Corgi 805
Ephemera relating to Corgi 805 Hardy Boys. From the property of Marcel Van Cleemput (1 exact example used in The Great Book of Corgi). Purchased by 'The Old School Collector' at The Losch Auction.
Notes
A fascinating trio of related ephemera:
1) Original Glossy picture (on acetate with backing paper) of The Hardy Boys in colour with details of the t.v, show. Produced we assume by the T.V. Company.
2) A proposed Corgi Gift Set (never issued) containing the Hardy Boys Rolls Royce towing a speed boat. Hand-painted on acetate with backing sheet. The actual example pictured in The Great Book of Corgi (page 256).
3)Story Board from the t.v. show for one of the scenes from a tv episode ( black & white line drawing, period photocopy).
Exceptional group.
