Notes
This is the first, more desirable issue (1967-70) Batboat with a tinplate fin (later issues had a plastic fin).
This particular version has blue screens. With bright and fresh complete paper labels on both sides, both seated figures of Batman and Robin and an attractive, beautifully detailed tinplate fin (later issues were plastic). Dashboard chrome has a couple of areas of ‘flaking’. Bright gold trailer with detailed cast wheels.
No black towing hook accessory piece with this example.
The card box with atmospheric graphics, is a work of art in itself!
Crisp, bright and fresh-looking. Light wear. Corgi Club Membership Form.
