C1143
Corgi 1143 American La France Aerial Rescue Truck. Very near mint/boxed (wear & tear), with Retailer Card. From The Monty Calme Collection.
Notes
A detailed and impressive fire engine from Corgi’s Major Pack range. This articulated fire truck is complete with all six firemen and all sections of the telescopic ladder, jewelled headlights, aerial and perfect “American La France” transfers on both sides. Certainly, this model has never been played with. Couple of little marks that you have to search for. Complete with all delicate parts intact including the wing mirrors! Detailed cast wheels. Rotating turntable and detachable tractor unit.
Some unpainted/brass-coloured fittings.
The early light blue and yellow large cellophane-fronted window box has original intact cellophane. Three small handling tears to the card. Little wear at end flaps. Wonderfully vibrant detailed scene on the box reverse.
Moulded polystyrene inner sleeve is complete.
Comes with the often-missing Retailer Card which doubles as a header card.
Always a sought-after Corgi item!
