Notes
One of a small range of models made between 1964-70; a factory fire at the Corgi factory ended the production of these models.
Two of the earliest issues:
1) Corgi Classic 900 Bentley (later re-numbered 9001)has a very close to mint original finish, complete with detachable black roof, and driver figure.
Still fixed to its card plinth with polystyrene insert and instructions on the base in order to remove the model from the plinth.
Colourfully illustrated, distinctive, end flap style (early) card box is brightly-coloured, clean and complete. Comes complete with the Leaflet.
2) Corgi Classic 901 1915 Model T Ford ‘TIN LIZZIE’. An all original black finish, with bright gold radiator and fittings. Complete with both figures. Very near mint with a few tiny marks only. Looks completely unused sitting on top of its bright, clean and complete card plinth.
The early style card box with end flaps is box is complete and bright, with no tears or graffiti. Minor handling wear only. With Leaflet.
Included are two period cuttings from a Belgian comic promoting both of these early Corgi Classic models:
