A pleasing example of this popular Corgi model made between 1964-69. In close to mint condition. It contains an Austin Police Mini Van in deepest blue finish with a red detailed interior, shining shaped spun wheels with suspension, aerial, jewelled headlights and complete ‘POLICE’ on both sides. Fine original tyres.
A few small marks to the paint and note the period Corgi accessory tax disc label on the windscreen.
Also included are the original figures of the police dog handler and tracker dog complete with his lead (often missing!). All safely slotted in to the crisp and bright inner plinth with a colourful backdrop. Light crease near the policeman figure.
The outer box is complete and brightly-coloured with minor wear only.
