C216
Corgi 216 Austin A40. Mint/boxed. Two-tone blue issue with flat spun wheels. Lovely box! From a very fine private Cheshire collection.
Notes
Issued between 1959-62, this Austin car has a shining two tone blue finish, and flat spun wheels. Barely handled, this example has survived particularly well, with none of the usual chipping or rubbing on the roof or raised body lines. Bright baseplate. Tiny as-made speckling on the roof.
The box is is really fresh and crisp with vivid colours on clean card. Small crayon mark on one side ( easily overlooked).
A beautiful addition to your Corgi collection.
