Notes
This fine two-piece Gift Set from Corgi is always popular with collectors. This example is in all original and barely handled condition comprising:
a) Corgi 1128 Priestman Cub Shovel. In close to mint condition with the occasional little mark, mostly on the grey section. Very fine lustre. Intact original black rubber tracks. Perfect ‘Priestman Cub’ transfer at the side and lettering at the rear of the vehicle. Mechanism for raising and lowering the jib works well. Cab containing driver is glazed.
b) Corgi 1131 Bedford TK Machinery Carrier. In very close to mint condition and notably complete with both wing mirrors, including the little reflective ‘mirror’ pieces. Very fine lustre. Black detachable rear axle and moveable ramps. Cast wheels. As-new tyres. Bright metal parts. Lovely example, complete with both spare tyres. Couple of little marks only.
Polystyrene insert is fresh and bright – in pristine condition!
A more unusual find in the* window box*. Crisp, clean and bright card has barely been handled. Period price label at an end flap. Smooth original cellophane is notably intact.
Little storage/handling wear including a little edge crumple.
