Notes
A delightful group!
1) Issued between 1964-66, this is an early, scarce Routemaster Bus with all those realistic touches not present in the later issues. Perfect and complete decorative ‘Corgi Classics’ and ‘Naturally Corgi Toys’ transfers. Bright shaped spun wheels with suspension. Conductor and driver. Jewelled headlights.
Very close to mint, all original condition.
The pictorial card box is complete and tear-free, showing light age/handling wear only.
2) Rare Corgi Toys London Transport Routemaster Bus promotional card stand is included! Note this is the later version with Corgi Dog logo and Corgi printed, not Mettoy printed.
Super little display piece alongside the Routemaster Bus.

3) Not often found with the little printed Mr. Retailer Note.
