1) Corgi 491 Ford Consul Super Estate Car in deep metallic blue finish with “wood” side panels, suspension on bright shaped spun wheels, jewelled headlights, cream interior and opening tailgate. Bright chrome. As-new supple tyres.
If you really want to fault it you could note the tiny light rub on the roof.
2) Golfer, caddie and trolley; all original and as-new!
Inner card stand has vibrant colours on extremely crisp barely handled card. Small wear to one slot for the golf clubs and golfer. Both pull-out tabs intact. Overall impression is as-new!
The outer box is fresh, bright and clean. Crisp, silky card. No graffiti. Tiny handling tear at an an end flap edge/ edge of box face.
Rarely seen with this sign included:
Card packing too!
Corgi Club Membership Form is unfolded and looking as-new.
One could wait a very long time to find another as fine.
