Corgi Gift Set 7 Daktari. Near mint plus/boxed. Spun wheels issue, complete with all characters and accessories. From The Corbridge Collection.
Notes
This popular Corgi Gift Set was inspired by the children’s t.v. programme Daktari (Swahili for doctor!) and is complete.
It contains:
1) Corgi 438 Land Rover in green with black stripes. Hard to fault. Few tiny dots if you peer extra-closely. So often the transfer immediately below the windscreen flakes away, this example has an intact transfer, although there is the tiniest of tears.
It comes complete with tiger on the bonnet, Dr. Marsh Tracy (with his stethoscope and chimp). Suspension on shining, shaped spun wheels. Well-shaped original tyres. Figures of Paula and of course, the cross-eyed lion Clarence, complete with spectacles! So often these sets are found with the spectacles and stethoscope missing (so easily lost).
Nice to see this set complete.
The cellophane-fronted window box is clean and bright, with attractive vivid illustrations.
Faint crease at box reverse. All end flaps are intact. Original cellophane window has a tear. Minor wear besides. Bright card inner is complete.
