Notes
This popular Corgi Gift Set was inspired by the children’s t.v. programme Daktari (Swahili for doctor!)and is complete, in original condition. Early Whizzwheel box version.
It contains:
Corgi 438 Land Rover in green with narrower black stripes. In very close to mint condition, complete with tiger on the bonnet, Dr. Marsh Tracy (with his stethoscope and chimp). Suspension on Whizzwheels. The bonnet transfer has a couple of tiny nicks. Tiny mark at a rear over-rider.
Figures of Paula and of course, the cross-eyed lion Clarence, complete with spectacles! Still contained in their sealed plastic bubble packaging.
The cellophane-fronted window box is complete with vivid colours and original intact, smooth cellophane. Note this is the earlier box version with additional printed details at end flaps and printed detail on the colourful, clean and fresh card insert. ( light ruffling in one small area).
Outer box is taller than the standard ‘Whizzwheel’ box issue.
A few flecks of surface loss at an end flap with inked detail. Light wear besides.
