Notes
A pleasing example of this James Bond-related item, inspired by the film ‘The Spy Who Loved Me’, first issued during 1977 (box is dated 1977 on the underside). In virtually mint condition. The colourfully illustrated card inner stand is fine and intact.
The ‘film strip’ header card box is very complete and bright. Version without the ‘hammer & sickle’ detail. The header card has a crease on the reverse where the header meets the main body of the box. Storage crumple. Original cellophane window has a little ruffling and a very small puncture. With complete sprue of missiles
