C1113
Corgi 1113 Corporal Guided Missile On Erector Vehicle. Very near mint/boxed. With all packing. Leaflet. From 'The Monty Calme Corgi Collection.
Notes
A detailed and impressive military model issued between 1959-62, with a movable boom which can elevate to vertical so that the missile can be lowered onto the launching pad (available separately at the time). This model works well (metal cogs). Close to mint matt military green finish on the vehicle itself, a few little marks and rubs on the missile and the circular clamps which hold the missile in place (as one might expect). Would benefit from a new percussion head (as is so often the case). Spare wheel in place – often missing.
This example includes the Instruction Leaflet which has a couple of little tears.
All original card packing pieces are included.
The attractive pictorial lift-off lid box is clean and vividly-coloured. A little storage/handling wear, including minor warping to the lid.
A substantial military piece.
