Notes
A delightful model from Corgi issued between 1965-66 with ingenious “glowing” Trans-O-Lite lighting. Glossy, original paint finish throughout. Spring suspension on shaped spun wheels, and the chef rotates when the knob on the roof is turned. Complete “Joe’s Diner” labels.
Small nick to the background of the SNACK BAR label and a few tiny marks to the paint finish. Tyre flat spot and minor surface splitting to one.
The box is complete and bright, showing a little age/handling wear only. No leaflet.
