C416
Corgi 416 RAC Radio Rescue Land Rover. Near mint/boxed. Rare early variation with Radio Rescue RAC lettering on tin tilt sides and flat spun hubs. Scarce plain box! From the Italian collection.
Notes
This is the first time we have ever offered for sale this particular early variation, as pictured in the Great Book of Corgi, page 72.
Early issue RAC Radio Rescue Land Rover finished in mid-blue, with smooth wheels. Correct that this early issue has no roof sign or bonnet label, original fine tread tyres.
In all original condition, you will find a few little marks at some exposed edges.
The scarce plain blue and yellow box has stamped details of the contents on the end flaps. Complete, if rather grubby and a little rubbed in places but no tears and resistant end flaps show minimal handling. No graffiti.
An extremely interesting variation!
