Notes
Issued between 1968-74, this 1st issue version contains:
’Zebra-striped Land-Rover with an intact circular ‘LIONS OF LONGLEAT’ label on the bonnet. Open hatch on the cab roof shows the keeper complete with the (usually missing!) rifle. Shiny spun wheels with suspension.
Also included is the plastic lion’s den. Included are the two male lions, one female lion. All of the lions are fixed in place with the little sticky pads applied to the polystyrene plinth and den. Three portions of meat and a red barrel are also still present*. So the full complement of accessories!
The polystyrene plinth is in clean and bright but note that there has been a repair at one end (these polystyrene plinths can be fragile).
The card box is strongly-coloured and complete with original cellophane intact. Light wear and a very small repair.
Notably, this example comes complete with the original, clean and fresh detachable header card/retailer card.
