C107
Corgi 107 Batboat. Early 'tin fin' issue. Very, very near mint/boxed. Complete with coupling attachment. From The Cheshire Collection.
Notes
This is the first, more desirable issue (1967-70) Batboat with a tinplate fin (later issues had a plastic fin). With bright and fresh complete paper labels on both sides, uncracked light blue screens, both seated figures of Batman and Robin and an attractive, beautifully detailed pristine tinplate fin (later issues were plastic). Notably intact chrome dashboard chrome. Bright gold trailer with detailed cast wheels. No chips on the tow hook!
Tiny wear to the paper label – otherwise hard to fault.
Notably, this item comes complete with the black towing hook accessory piece which could be used to attach it to the first issue Batmobile (without towhook).
The card box with atmospheric graphics, is a work of art in itself! Crisp, bright and complete with no tears. Very minor wear (including a little corner crumple). Old tape residue at end flaps.
