The colourfully-illustrated detailed card plinth on which each car sits is in clean, bright and fresh condition. Barely any wear and most of the push-out slots where the cars sit are still in situ.
Notably, this set comes with all the original packing pieces i.e. the white card surround for each model and the white card packing piece which is placed on top of the models.
The pictorial all-card outer box is complete and bright.
Small end flap seam tear.
Old price label at an end flap. Minor age wear.
One of the most sought-after Corgi Gift Sets – not often found with all original packing card pieces.
