Corgi Toys 1142 Holmes Wrecker Vehicle

Notes

An impressively detailed truck from Corgi.
With a bright red and white paint finish and complete ‘Holmes Wrecker’ transfers on both sides. Intact wing mirrors each with the reflective stickers in place. Intact and straight gold-coloured double horns on the roof. Complete translucent red hazard ‘light’. Both spare tyres are still in place. Chevron paper label at the rear of the model has a little age transparency now.
Barely a mark to the paint finish.

Polystyrene inner is complete, bright and fresh with a vibrantly-coloured original Corgi Cog label.
This example comes with the Instruction leaflet and both mechanics.

The blue and yellow card and cellophane-fronted box is the harder to find version which has an all-blue top section. Earlier version of the window box has a half-yellow and half-blue top section. Intact original cellophane and bright colours.

Issued between 1967-74.
