Notes
A sought-after, scarce Belgian export issue made between 1965-66 only. Easily distinguishable with its ingenious “glowing” Trans-O-Lite lighting, this was the first Corgi ‘special’ export model.
In very near mint condition with spring suspension on shaped spun wheels, and the chef rotates when the knob on the roof is turned. Complete"Patates Frites" and “Snack Bar” labels.
Barely a mark to the paint finish.
The pictorial box is bright, fresh, clean and complete. Crisp feel. Very minor wear only. Period price label.
