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’ (some edge nibbles and a few edge nicks on one side). Bright shaped spun wheels and jewelled headlights. Correct, distinctive and original finish of brown, cream and green. Complete with driver, conductor, post, detailed cream interior, bright yellow staircase, window glazing.
Few small marks to the paint finish and note that the two front tyres have a pronounced flat spot (due to being placed in one position for a prolonged time).
The bright and clean card pictorial box is complete. A little handling wear.
Period price label. Good to see the correct slip is still present:
