C297
Original 'Cut-away' Prototype of Corgi 297. Unique item from The New European Collection.
Notes
An exceptional collection of prototypes were purchased by ?The New European? Collector, largely originating from two well-documented sources i.e. the auction of the property of Marcel Van Cleemput at Sotheby?s Auction House in 1999 and the Losch Auction House in Germany during 2000.
This ‘cut-away’ prototype shows the components required to create this Ford Escort Police model issued 1982-86. No POLICE labels at this stage.
Originally sold through Losch Auction Hose in 2000, where a quantity of original Corgi Prototypes from Marcel Van Cleemput were sold.
