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.

A fascinating piece of Corgi history ? this wooden prototype measures 4 inches, has pencilled detailing, shaped spun wheels. Never went into full production.
Originally sold through us in 2006, this model came from an Austrian collector who had become a friend of Marcel Van Cleemput. We sold this model to ?Monty Calme? in 2006.
