C397
Pre-production Sample Piece Corgi Porsche Formula 1 Racing Car . Originally the property of Marcel Van Cleemput and sold through Losch Auction House in March 2000. Another exciting item from The Monty Calme Collection.
Notes
An exciting version that sadly never made it past the design stage. This pre-production colour trial piece (originally the property of Marcel Van Cleemput, Chief Designer for Corgi), has a brilliant yellow finish, hand-finished details to the driver figure, some wear to the original ‘COLT’ labels. Intact ‘Shell’ and ‘PORSCHE’ labels , including ‘SHELL’ logo decoration. An exceptionally scarce piece, probably one of a kind. Lot number 2260 In Losch Auction House Marcel Van Cleemput Sale.
