Notes
Issued between 1959-61 and part of the popular range of ‘Major Pack’ military models. This model would be used for firing the ‘Bloodhound’ Guided missile available from Corgi at the same time. The launcher has a matt military green finish with a cream and silver base, very bright metal parts. Nice example!
There are a couple of edge chips to the base and a little minor marking where the base of a missile would be inserted for firing.
The colourful lift-off lid box is intact with no splits or graffiti. Packing piece is included. Very slightly faded box lid and a small area of surface removal. Usual rubbing at edges etc.
