Notes
This popular Corgi Gift Set was inspired by the children’s t.v. programme Daktari (Swahili for doctor!) and is complete.
It contains:
1) Corgi 438 Land Rover in green with black stripes. So often the transfer immediately below the windscreen flakes away, this example has an intact and complete transfer!
It comes complete with tiger on the bonnet, Dr. Marsh Tracy (with his stethoscope and chimp). Suspension on shining, shaped spun wheels. Well-shaped original tyres. Figures of Paula and of course, the cross-eyed lion Clarence, complete with spectacles! So often these sets are found with the spectacles and stethoscope missing (so easily lost).
Nice to see this set complete – and in virtually mint condition.
Card stand is complete and bright. A little water staining visible on the reverse and a tape repair to one end, visible only when taken out of the box. Small area of surface loss.
The cellophane-fronted window box is clean and bright, with attractive vivid illustrations.
Usual crease at box reverse. Couple of handlign tears to the card.Light wear besides. Original cellophane window has a tiny puncture.
