Notes
We are delighted to offer this scarce original Gift Set for sale.
It comprises:
First issue with a black and white Renault in all original condition with complete labels throughout (save for one tiny nick to the bonnet label) . Complete with spare wheel under the bonnet. Driver, camera man and camera.
Later issues would have a plain orange sleeve insert, but this slightly earlier issue has the attractive tree-lined backdop with the little clear blister attached, containing the race leader on his bicycle in his yellow jersey.
Very fine condition!
Polystyrene plinth is clean, fresh and bright. With the original bands which secured the car.
The header card window box is complete and bright with original cellophane (small nick). Very light crease on the card reverse where it joins the main body of the box. Small repaired tear emanating from one end flap seam.
Comes with the often missing model specific leaflet/ Corgi Club Membership Form:
