Notes
The Monty Calme 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.
Monty says:
" I bought this model from QDT several years ago when they were handling an important collection from Austria. The seller was a friend of Marcel Van Cleemput so many items from him were pretty amazing!"
A highly attractive colour trial of the Iso Grifo in metallic gold and black with black interior – a shame this version never went into full production (metallic blue with a white interior was decided upon instead).
In very good condition with a few chips to the paint finish.
Screwed base typical of prototype/trial models.
