Notes

A landmark Corgi Collection covering the width and breadth of Corgi models amassed over decades by an exuberant collector. The Monty Calme collection is a truly astonishing gathering of the best of Corgi models and ephemera, including rare and unique pieces and point of sale items. The largest collection we have ever seen.
A most desirable scarce Corgi set and a difficult find in any condition. Undoubtedly, this is one of the best surviving examples.
Particularly susceptible to damage is the very attractive large colourful window box with a winged header card. This colourfully-illustrated 1st issue has plenty of atmospheric artwork (with absolutely no sunfading!) on the complete and intact header card. All end flaps are present and firmly attached (couple of little seam rubs). No tears or graffiti. Original cellophane is smooth and undamaged. Colours have lost none of their vibrancy.
Lots of information on the box reverse.

This set comprises:
Corgi 267 Batmobile with both original seated figures of Batman and Robin. This is the tow hook version (correct for this set). Intact blue screens. Suspension on ‘Bat wheels’. All functions operate well; chain cutter, rocket launcher and pulsating flame. Bright Bat logos on the wheels and complete and bright Bat logos at both sides of the Batmobile. Intact original aerial. Occasional minute dot only.

Corgi 107 Batboat. Early issue with the attractive tin fin, sitting on a cast-wheeled gold trailer. Complete paper labels on both sides of the boat – most minor age wear only. Both original seated figures.
Both items sit in a yellow plastic inner, which is notably intact. Extremely difficult to find this good.

Complete with an original still-sealed set of instructions. And this set is unopened – not a later re-sealed example!
Comes complete with the original plain buff over-sleeve (very minor wear).

The best example we have ever seen.
