Corgi 153A
Corgi 153A Proteus Campbell Bluebird Record Car. Excellent plus/boxed. Second issue, with metal wheels and UK/US flags. In RARE OVER-STAMPED 153 box. Dated 1961 TRANSITION BOX.
Notes
Rare transition model, in all original condition finished in mid-blue with both U.S. and U.K. crossed flags on the bonnet. Notably complete. Metal wheels issue.
A little of the usual rubbing on the raised arches. Some paint loss at the nose and tail tip.
The long slim box is a scarce find with printed over-stickers (153A) at the end flaps. So second issue. Box has a little handling grubbiness, but feels very crisp. Light crease. No tears. Period prices at an end flap. Crisp with strong colours.
