Notes
Issued between 1972-74, this delightful nostalgic piece was inspired by the Magic Roundabout T.V. series.
In close to mint condition, complete with all 5 figures bright and colourful. Turn the dial which has Dylan atop, and the carousel turns with the instantly familiar Magic Roundabout theme tune playing!
Bright colours throughout including the decorative paper labels note the handling wear and tear to the label near the dial. Very light wear besides.
Complete with both card packing card pieces (few little stains to the top card packing piece).
The attractive decorative card box is brightly-coloured and complete. A little wear, including tiny tears at end flap hinges. No sunfading. Light storage crumple at one side and a few little spatters of tea/coffee. Very small area of surface loss where the old tape which kept the lid closed was removed at some time.
Often the boxes for this item are in poor condition with heavy wear and end flaps missing- or simply sold with no box at all!
An unusual and eye-catching Corgi model with lots of nostalgic appeal.
