Corgi Toys 290 Kojak Buick
Kojak Buick by Corgi Toys, No. 290.'Hatted' version. Assumed mint/boxed (never opened). With both figures of Kojak & Crocker. From The Wesley Lodge Collection.
Notes
This wonderfully fresh example of the Kojak Buick is finished in bright deep metallic bronze with 12-spoke wheels. Complete with both original figures of Kojak and Crocker, detachable beacon and badge. An exceptional display piece especially with the atmospheric skyscraper card backdrop. Version with all-card inner*.
Issue is dated 1976 on the virtually pristine box – so second issue – note that the first issue has Kojak’s Buick printed rather than simply Kojak Buick and has 1975 printed on the box.
Super-fresh example, both model and box. Faintest blue residue on box (top left) and the most minute crumple (top right).
Old shop stock quality.
