C421
Corgi 421 Bedford 12CWT Van "Evening Standard". Very near mint/boxed (slight wear). Black issue with a silver roof. Scarce. From The Monty Calme Collection.
Notes
A delightful Corgi model in very close to mint condition, issued between 1960-63. This van has a black body, with a silver ridged roof, smooth hubs. Labels are notably bright and complete on both sides. Shiny baseplate has daub of white paint Over the years, we have seen quite a few models with this white paint daub ( not sure of its relevance, if any).
Not an easy find in this condition:
Occasional negligible dot to the paint finish.
The card pictorial box is complete and bright, if looking a touch worn now, with light rubbing at an edge and a couple of creases. Period pencilled price at an end flap.
