Notes

From one of the largest, private collections we have ever seen, with many items bought new at the time and stored away until now. Taken as a whole, the collection provides an exciting, kaleidoscopic snapshot of popular diecast toys issued during the 1960?s -1970?s.

We are delighted to offer this scarce original Gift Set for sale.
It comprises:
First issue with a black and white Renault in all original condition with complete labels throughout (save for one tiny nick to the bonnet label) . Complete with spare wheel under the bonnet. Driver, camera man and camera.
Marking to the rear lights. Stray white factory marks in one small area on the roof.

Later issues would have a plain orange sleeve insert, but this slightly earlier issue has the attractive tree-lined backdop with the little clear blister attached, containing the race leader on his bicycle in his yellow jersey.

In as-new condition!
Polystyrene plinth is clean, fresh and bright. Trace of the original bands which secured the car.

The header card window box looks very fresh, clean and bright with notably intact original cellophane. A superb example with day-one vibrant colours on uncreased, as-new card! Not even a crease on the card reverse where it joins the main body of the box. One corner has tiny wear. Period price label at an end flap.
Comes with the often missing model specific leaflet/ Corgi Club Membership Form (really clean and crisp!).
Retailer Card too – what a set!
