Notes
This is the early issue in the all card pictorial box.
The Lotus model has a deep orange and white finish and complete racing number 8 labels on the bonnet stripe and both sides. ‘Realistic’ driver controlled steering too. Complete with racing driver, aerofoils, both wing mirrors and an intact windscreen. Couple of probably as-made marks.
Also included is the Feature Leaflet for this model which incorporates a Corgi Club Membership Form (little tear) and the packing piece too.
Not often found this complete.
The box is bright, clean and extremely fresh. Tiny fleck of surface loss on an end flap.
