Notes

One of the most eagerly sought-after Corgi models, especially with fully working chimes.

C474h5351

C474h5352

The Ford Thames Van has a shining blue and cream finish with striped awning and decorative trimmings, sliding windows and notably when you turn the handle the chimes play the complete tune (5 notes)! Bright plated fittings and complete ’Wall’s’ transfers on both sides. Windows are rather ‘foggy’ now (common fault – over time dust gets trapped and adhered to the interior surface of the windows). Few tiny dots to the paint finish.
Nice to see that this example comes with the clean and bright colourful card stand as well as the wrap-around card packing piece. Full set of unapplied labels on a backing sheet. Corgi Club Membership Form/ Instruction Leaflet* is included.

C474h5353

The decorative card box is clean and quite bright with a crisp feel. Plenty of end flap spring. Silky feel to the card. Minor age wear/light grubbiness only.
A truly nostalgic piece!
