Corgi 405M
Corgi 405M Bedford Fire Tender. Very near mint/boxed. Scarce early mechanical item from The Reference Collection.
Notes
Issued 1956-59, this early Corgi emergency van is in very fine, original condition, with a bright, lustrous red paint finish, divided screen, flat spun wheels, complete ‘Fire Dept’ labels on both sides and the motorised function works perfectly.
Black base and fine, well-shaped treaded original tyres
Under close scrutiny, you will spot the occasional negligible mark only. Presents well with completely unmarked transfers on both sides, a vibrant unfaded original paint finish and fine original silver trim.
The correct early blue picture box is clean, bright, with a crisp feel. Minor age/handling wear.
