C471
Corgi 471 Smith's-Karrier Mobile Canteen. Very near mint (one little mark)/boxed. From a collection in Berlin.
Notes
A popular model from Corgi issued between 1965-66 with ingenious “glowing” Trans-O-Lite lighting. In fine condition, with a bright and blemish-free original paint finish throughout. Spring suspension on shaped spun wheels, and the chef rotates when the knob on the roof is turned. Detailed interior with chef, sink, hotplates, tea urn and till. Complete “Snack Bar” and “Joe’s Diner” labels.
This example is in virtually mint condition with one little mark at a rear light detail.
The box is complete if a touch worn now with a little handling/age wear. Small slit in one of the small end flaps. Period pencilled price on one non-picture side.
