Notes
A popular Corgi model made between 1971-1973 and part of the ‘Corgi Comics’ range of models. The inimitable Basil Brush character is seated inside his bright red and yellow car.
Red plastic wheels and as-new original ‘Corgi Toys’ embossed tyres.
Couple of wheel arch edge chips and a couple of very small marks besides.
This model comes with the ‘Sound Box’ containing intact laugh tapes. An ambitious idea from Corgi: the pieces of tape inside are meant to sound like Basil’s laughter when the instructions are followed.
The colourfully illustrated outer box is complete, bright and shows minimal handling. As is so often the case, the original cellophane has a split. Minor wear besides.
Complete pictorial stand has a few indentations at the sides caused by contact with the edge of the car.
