Few little orange dots of colour from contact with the inner for a prolonged period. May be possible to carefully remove. Mere dot or two besides.
Bright silver base and as-new original tyres with "Corgi Toys’ embossed.
Slightly later version with a plain orange card backdrop inside the box. Crisp, fresh and bright. This set comes complete with the the race leader on his bicycle in his yellow jersey.
Polystyrene plinth is complete and as-new with the sticky pad positioned to hold the cyclist in place.
The header card window box is colourful and complete with original cellophane (couple of tiny punctures). Remains of two pieces of tape (applied for some reason!). A little age grubbiness/sticker residue on the card. Note the little puncture to the header card since the box was pinned up at some time. Not immediately obvious from the box front since it has pressed back into place.
