Notes
We are delighted to offer this scarce original Gift Set for sale.
It comprises:
First issue with a black and white Renault in all original condition with complete labels throughout (except for a nick to one of the side transfers). Complete with spare wheel under the bonnet. Driver, camera man and camera.
Later issues would have a plain orange sleeve insert, but this slightly earlier issue has the attractive tree-lined backdrop with the little clear blister attached, containing the race leader on his bicycle in his yellow jersey.
Very fine condition!
Polystyrene plinth is clean, fresh and bright.
The header card window box is complete and bright with original cellophane (small nick). Happy to say that there is no crease on the card reverse where it joins the main body of the box. Light wear and some flecks of surface loss in places.
Comes with the often missing model specific leaflet/ Corgi Club Membership Form:
Retailer Card is included too.
