C468
Corgi 468 Routemaster Bus, in New South Wales livery. Near mint plus/boxed. Extremely scarce version from The Monty Calme Collection.
Notes
A rare find, and usually missing from most collections, this is a Routemaster Bus in the New South Wales livery with ‘Corgi Classics’ transfers on one side, ‘Naturally Corgi Toys’ on the other, bright shaped spun wheels and jewelled headlights. Correct, distinctive finish in brown, cream and green. Looks barely handled with a shining unrubbed finish! Complete with driver, conductor, post, detailed cream interior, bright yellow staircase, window glazing. Additional ‘468’ label at the rear.
Hard to find a mark but note that minute scrutiny reveals a couple of very small touch-ins on the roof.
The crisp and clean card pictorial box has strong colours and minimal handling wear.
Penned ‘19’ on one box face.
