CJ2006
2 x Corgi Super Juniors 2006 'GULF' & 'EXXON' . Very, very near mint-mint/boxed. Looks as if the boxes have never been opened. Rare factory sample pieces from The Monty Calme Collection.
Notes
These promotional models never went into full production, so extremely rare items either unique sample pieces or part of a very small run. Fortunately, Monty managed to discover a batch of these promotional models. He says:
I met a chap after buying many corgi juniors some in very rare colour combinations, 7- 8 years ago whose uncle used to work in quality control in the factory in Swansea.
Every summer they used to go on a camping holiday with other Corgi employees! One such chap worked in the production/design office and he created these various designs.
My contact was a youngster at the time and together with his brother and as a result of their uncle were given these models by the chap working in the production office as gifts.
Both models are in in completely unused condition with complete transfers (boxes remain unopened, but recommend opening them to ensure safe transit). Superb fresh, crisp boxes. Period note on a green label on both of them.
