Notes
A sought-after Corgi item with a fresh and lustrous white and light blue paint finish. Scarce issue with suspension on shaped spun wheels. There is a delightful detailed shop window detail at both sides of the Karrier Bantam Van and of course through the rear window, one can see the butcher awaiting his customers! Complete and vivid ‘Family Butchers’ label above the cab roof and at the rear. The side labels are complete too (little wear to one).
Grey base and smooth-running original tyres.
Little rub to the raised roof detail.
The harder to find blue and yellow non-picture box is complete and strongly-coloured. Crisp. Stamped ends with ‘S’ label ( denoting suspension) on one end. Light age/handling wear.
Period pencilled price.
