C266
Corgi 266 Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. Very near mint/boxed (cello tear). Complete with all four original figures and wrap-around cloud scene! Original and best 1st issue from 'The New European' Collection.
Notes
This is the ‘most fantasmagorical’ Corgi toy, in all original, very close to mint condition. Gleaming bright, with all four original figures seated inside. All jewels are complete, front and rear number plates are intact, as are the delicate carriage lamps. The car functions well: the wings flip out when the handbrake is depressed. Just a couple of negligible marks to the chrome windscreen.
Looks as if it has never been removed from the plastic stand (both originla fixings are still in place).
The white plastic inner has a a few of the usual small splits. The blue card cloud scene (often missing) is in fine condition.
The large cellophane fronted “window” boxis strongly-coloured, clean , with only the faintest suggestion of a crease pn the box reverse where the header card meets the main body of the box. Original cellophane has a tear which has been covered with clear tape at some time. Very small card tear at an end flap.
A firm Corgi favourite – one of the most decorative and much-loved Corgi models.
