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.
Issued between 1975-79, this model was inspired b the T.V. Series ’SPACE 1999. In complete and original condition, finished in red and white, with all four radioactive drums (labels are applied). Chrome details (a little rubbing in places), and a few very small marks to the white finish.
Still looks barely handled.
An early issue, so it is presented in the card and vacuum-formed plastic lid-style box. (later it would be presented in the card & cellophane box). Issued 1975-79.
Card base looks pristine. Always susceptible to damage, the plastic lid is notably intact, if a little age-darkened now, although still pliant (not brittle). One small corner split. Little period price label.
