Notes
This sought-after Corgi commercial Bedford ‘S’ Tanker is in glossy, fresh condition with virtually perfect – perfect transfers on both sides. Perfect detailed transfer at the rear. Slightly later issue with shaped spun rather than flat spun wheels. Glossy silver trim and tanker roof detail. This is the version with suspension. Couple of minor wheel arch marks caused by the swivelling tank section. Vivid day-one bright colours; not a hint of sunfading on this model:
Bright baseplate, too. Well-shaped tyres.
A few retouches visible on the roof. Note this model has both wing mirrors with reflective pieces present (one of the wing mirrors has had a near-invisible repair).
The later end flap style box is complete, showing a little minor fading to one face. Light wear includes a little end flap edge ruffling. Period penned price on an end flap.
Card packing sleeve included.
