All authentic items!
Inner polystyrene tray is intact, if a little marked by the models in places now. Unusually, this set has the top moulded piece of polystyrene too.
Outer box with a charming and delightful full colour pictorial scene is a work of art in itself and displays well with no loss of colour vibrancy.
The lid face has two punctures which have pressed back into place and a couple of tears at a short lid end. Residue of old tape which kept the lid closed. A small area of surface loss at two lid ends. Wear besides and note the interior surface of the lid has some glue applied and there is residue of polystyrene which it seems the original owner applied, perhaps to strengthen the box. The comparatively flimsy yellow card base into which the polystyrene base fits has some grubbiness and a couple of small edge scuffs. Little tear. Water-staining.
Underside of box base:
With two informative leaflets and (two) Corgi Club Membership Forms:
