Notes
We are especially delighted to offer this scarce original Gift Set for sale.
It comprises:
A black and white Renault in mint, unused condition with perfect detailed transfers and complete ‘Paramount’ paper labels on the roof sign (tiniest stain to one). Car still has the red and white elastic banding which fixes it to the inner. Complete with spare wheel in the bonnet, driver, camera man and camera. A rare find in this condition!
Couple of minor rubs at door handle detail.
Slightly later version with a plain orange card backdrop inside the box. Crisp, fresh and bright. This set comes complete with the the race leader on his bicycle in his yellow jersey.
Polystyrene plinth is complete and as-new with the sticky pad positioned to hold the cyclist in place.
The header card window box has barely any wear at all. Very vivid colours and none of the expected wear or creasing on the header card. Hardly any wear at all.
Also included is the model specific Membership Form with details of the tour in three different languages.
A fine set rarely seen in this condition.
