C210
Corgi 210 Citroen DS 19. Very near mint/boxed. Lemon with a red roof. From 'The Monty Calme' Corgi Collection.
Notes
This version has a fresh lemon and red finish with flat spun wheels. In very close to mint condition with barely a mark. In all original condition throughout, this fine Corgi car has had careful handling only:
Note the bulge on the baseplate on this version, more commonly found on mechanical models. Fine original tyres.
Originally Corgi intended to issue a mechanical version (hence the bulge) but this was never issued. This is not a mechanical version but has the baseplate that would have been used if such a model were produced. An interesting issue therefore.
The powder blue box is a pleasing example – complete and bright with very minor handling wear only. Shopkeeper’s pencilled price at end flaps. Promotional colour booklet is also included.
