Notes
Issued between 1961-64, this is a rare and sought-after Gift Set!
The few examples that come to the market place nearly always have models with a poor, heavily pitted paint finish. The comparatively fragile boxes are particularly susceptible to wear.
This gold-plated set comprises:
1) 224 Bentley Continental, with lightest surface pitting to the finish. Minor marking. Intact bonnet emblem, red interior, spun wheels. Jewelled front and rear lights. Original, as-new grey tyres.
2) 229 Chevrolet Corvair, with very light pitting to the finish, red interior. Smooth-running original tyres.
3) 234 Ford Consul has a gold-plated base. Lightest pitting to the surface of the model. Bonnet is reluctant to open – and we do mot want to force it.
All three cars sit within a two-tier card tray which is bright and complete, with barely any wear at all.
Outer sleeve is bright and deeply-coloured, complete with intact original cellophane window notably.
Some creasing and storage crumpling only.
Still-sealed Corgi Toys Accessory Pack A included as well as the Corgi Model Club Magazine from 1961 & Corgi Toys Catalogue 1961.
Particularly rare to find the plain brown card packing sleeve too (wear).
