CGS41
Original Prototype of Corgi Gift Set 41 'The 1902 State Landau' (Queen's Silver Jubilee 1977) . Pictured on page 349 of 'The Great Book of Corgi'. Another superb item from 'The New European' Collection.
Notes
An exceptional collection of prototypes were purchased by ?The New European? Collector, largely originating from two well-documented sources i.e. the auction of the property of Marcel Van Cleemput at Sotheby?s Auction House in 1999 and the Losch Auction House in Germany during 2000.
Another unforgettable prototype from this collector, this is the original prototype for the 1902 State Landau, marking the Queen’s Silver Jubilee in 1977.
An accurate model with beautiful attention to detail. Note that the prototype model has 6 horses and the Queen is wearing a pink dress. Corgi Gift Set 41 would have just four horses and the Queen is dressed in a yellow outfit.
Model and stand are mounted on a wooden plinth and of course there is the charming detail of the little Corgi dog too!
Occasional little break/small piece missing to the thin plastic attachments between the horses.
Substantial clear plastic cover.
A stunning and unique display piece.
