Notes
This is the first, more desirable issue (1967-70) Batboat with a tinplate fin (later issues had a plastic fin). With bright and fresh complete paper labels on both sides, distinctive light greenish-blue screens (light scratch to one), both seated figures of Batman and Robin(still banded in place) and an attractive, beautifully detailed tinplate fin (later issues were plastic). Bright gold trailer with spun wheels (a scarce version) is in virtually mint condition.
Paper labels are intact.
Note that a small lower portion of the chrome effect on the dashboard has flaked off (common fault).
This item comes complete with the black towing hook accessory piece which could be used to attach it to the first issue Batmobile (without tow hook).
The card box with atmospheric graphics, is a work of art in itself! Small part-puncture has pressed back into place.
Very light wear. With Corgi Club Membership Form.
