Corgi 448
Corgi 448 B.M.C. Mini Police Van with Tracker Dog. SPUN WHEELS issue. Near mint plus/ boxed. Nice box! From the 'Exclusively Mini' Collection.
Notes
This popular Corgi model was made between 1964-69. The Austin Police Mini Van is finished in deep blue with a red detailed interior, shining shaped spun wheels with suspension, intact original aerial, jewelled headlights and perfect ‘POLICE’ labels on both sides.
Under strong light only several very light scratch marks may be seen on the roof (really faint so do not usually show). Little chip at a rear edge and a few tiny marks besides.
Also included are the original figures of the police dog handler and tracker dog complete with his lead (often missing). All safely slotted in to the crisp and bright inner plinth with a colourful backdrop. Note that there are a couple of little slot tears.
On the reverse, there is background information on both the B.M.C. Mini Van and the training of the Alsatian police dog, and the work they do.
Colourful card box is crisp, bright and fresh-looking. Barely any wear.
