Notes
This would have been a special treat indeed for some lucky little boy circa 1963!
It comprises:
1) 1105 Bedford TK Transporter is in near mint plus condition. Few little chips where the loading ramp attaches to the top section (metal meets metal, so understandable). Occasional smaller mark besides.
Both wing mirrors are present and complete with the little reflective ‘mirror’ pieces. Metal parts are bright. Corgi Dog transfer has a little nick at the rear.
2) Corgi 232 Fiat 2100. Very near mint (little mark at bonnet edge). Box is very bright and crisp.
3) Corgi 234 Ford Consul Classic is in very close to mint condition ( couple of little marks at opening bonnet edge). Crisp, clean and vivid box has a very small end flap tear.
4) Corgi 222 Renault Floride. Very, very near mint. Outstanding box.
5) *Corgi 230 Mercedes-Benz 220 SE Coupe. Black. Very shiny. Some rubbing at the bumpers. Very near mint. Note that this model is now housed in a 253 Mercedes box (not strictly correct of course). Tiny period price at an end flap.
Complete with two original ‘Dummy’ boxes (version without end flaps) and Leaflet.
Card insert is clean and bright. Note the punctures caused by contact with the transporter.
The attractive pictorial card box is complete and vividly-coloured. Light wear only, including a small storage corner crumple. Hard to find this good. No splits or repairs.
