Notes
The Old School Collector tells us:
“I bought the Jensen’s from a Danish collector at Gothenburg swapmeet. He told me that he worked for this company and got this as a gift from his company”.
One of the rarest Corgi models – the Danish promotional version of the Hillman Imp finished in light blue. Authentic ’JENSEN’S’ labels on both sides, yellow interior, shaped spun wheels with notably intact suspension throughout.
Intact labels on both sides.
Luggage.
Tiny mark on a door handle and a tiny surface mark on the roof ( being extra-critical here).
Colourful card box is clean, brightly-coloured and complete. Really crisp with plenty of end flap spring. Scarcely any wear at all.
Original model specific leaflet is included:
