Notes

A most desirable scarce Corgi set and a difficult find in any condition.
Particularly susceptible to damage is the very attractive large colourful window box with a winged header card. This colourfully-illustrated 1st issue has plenty of atmospheric artwork (with absolutely no sunfading!) on the complete and crisp, intact header card. All end flaps are present and firmly attached – and just one tiny tear to an internal end flap. Lightest wear only. Original cellophane has a couple of tiny pin pricks. Colours have lost none of their vibrancy and the card is crisp.
Lots of information on the box reverse.

Appears never to have been removed from the box. Bright Bat logos on the wheels and complete and bright Bat logos at both sides of the Batmobile. Original aerial intact. Small ( probably factory) chip near a rear wing tip and a couple of little wheel arch marks. Tiny mark at the other rear wing tip.
