Notes
This wonderfully fresh example of the Kojak’s Buick is finished in bright darkest metallic bronze with 12-spoke wheels. Couple of small bumper chrome rubs.
Complete with both original figures of Kojak and Crocker, detachable beacon and badge. An exceptional display piece especially with the atmospheric skyscraper card backdrop.
Issue is dated 1976 on the attractive box – a late first issue with Kojak’s Buick printed rather than simply Kojak Buick.
This version has both a polystyrene base as well as the card backdrop. (A later issue would have a card plinth and card backdrop). Note the small polystyrene ‘post’ is no longer present in front of the figure of Kojak.
‘NEW’ tag box.
Intact original cellophane. Light crease as is so often the case on the reverse where the header card section joins the main body of the box Tiny wear besides.
