Notes
This blue and white Commer Van has a bright mid-blue interior, and shaped spun wheels. As-new Corgi tyres with ‘Corgi Toys’ embossed. Suspension is fine. Note that this version has a silver tripod. Complete with intact ‘Samuelson Film Service Limited’ paper label on both sides of the van. Includes the little black plastic opening equipment case, 3 position cameraman and his rotating camera.
In very close to mint condition – feels as if this has been out of its box once or twice! Couple of little marks at the rear opening doors(maybe factory).
The header card picture box is bright with vivid colours. Crisp! Happily free of the usual crease on the reverse where it meets the box (usually a heavier crease is found at this point). Header card stands straight (quite often these large header cards can flop forwards, but not this one). The original cellophane window is still in place and has a minor ruffle and a tiny puncture (when viewed with a magnifying glass).
The colourful card inner is bright, clean and crisp. Little ruffle caused by contact with the model.
Small card packing piece is present.
