Notes
A gleaming vivid original deep blue paint finish on this early Bedford Van! One of the first Corgi models made, manufacture of this model began during 1956. Complete clean and fresh-looking ‘Daily Express’ labels on both sides, flat spun wheels, bright base has a few tarnished spots. Original tyres look as-new.
Tiny light scratch on the roof and a little surface mark on one of the labels.
The early blue box is strongly -coloured, complete and crisp . No graffiti. Shows minimal age wear. Includes a very nice Corgi Promotional colour booklet. Again, looking like new!
