Notes
Typically, the last item to be added to any Corgi military collection – the rare U.S issue in the plain stamped box! Made during 1963 and ‘Special Order’ only. It did not re-appear until January 1965 when it was re-numbered 357. Only 17000 were ever made.
This example is in all original condition, in military green finish with a lemon interior, intact (although slightly skewed) aerial. Shaped spun hubs with suspension. A few very small chips only. U.S. Army stars on bonnet and both doors ( tiny nick in one).
The plain blue and yellow box has stamped details on end flaps as shown. A little water stained and has some surface removal to one side. A little graffiti but all complete. Original dollar price label on one end.
This is only the fourth example of this model that we have had in some twenty years.
