Notes
A sought-after Corgi model.
The Oldsmobile Super 88 Gun-Firing Man From UNCLE Thrushbuster car has a rich, deep purple-blue paint finish, shiny chrome parts including the roof button, and a complete, fresh and clean original paper label on the bonnet. Cast wheels.
Model functions perfectly.
The original Waverley Ring is included too.
Very nice!
Couple of very small marks to the paint head-on, and that’s about it.
The colourful card plinth is complete and bright with a little minor ruffling at wheel slots. Couple of very small wheel slot tears. Version with a monochrome central panel over which the car is placed.
Plenty of information on plinth reverse.
The outer box too is clean, brightly-coloured and complete. Some age/handling wear and a couple of small, discreet end flap seam repairs.
Both inner packing rings which fit over the top of the roof button are included.
