Notes

This would have been a special treat indeed for some lucky little boy circa 1963!
An obviously never sold Gift Set and certainly barely handled. The individual boxes for the cars are intensely crisp and fresh, with resistance at end flaps showing minimal opening (perhaps 2 or 3 times over the past 54 years!).

It comprises:

Cgs28r5321

1) 1105 Bedford TK Transporter is in near mint plus condition.
Both wing mirrors are present and complete with the little reflective ‘mirror’ pieces. Metal parts are bright. Corgi Dog transfer is complete at the rear. A little storage rubbing to the lettering on one side. A few (must be!) factory assembly marks to the paint finish besides.
