Corgi Toys 269 James Bond Lotus Esprit
James Bond Lotus Esprit by Corgi Toys, No. 269. Rare late detachable header card version with multi-lingual 'Not suitable for children under 36 months' print. Very near mint/boxed. From The Ian Hewlett Collection.
Notes
Usually found in the standard boxes with built in header cards, this item is in unused authentic condition – still firmly attached to its orange and yellow card insert by means of the two original plastic clips. A bright and fresh example, this model comes complete with a full sprue of rockets.
A few minor marks to the paint finish only.
The outer box is crisp and bright as indeed is the number specific colour header card. Light wear and a crumple mostly visible on the underside of the box. End flap tear. Original cellophane is smooth and puncture-free.
Note that this version has multi-lingual print immediately below the header card ‘Not suitable for children under 36 months’.
A scarce later issue model.
