Notes
A popular model from Corgi issued between 1965-66 with ingenious “glowing” Trans-O-Lite lighting. In fine condition, with a bright and blemish-free original paint finish throughout. Spring suspension on shaped spun wheels, and the chef rotates when the knob on the roof is turned. Detailed interior with sink, hotplates, tea urn and till. Chef is complete with his dish and chef’s hat! Complete “Snack Bar” and “Joe’s Diner” labels (slight age transparency to the side label).
Peering closely, you may find the occasional negligible small mark or rub, but this example is very close to mint.
The box is complete, although a little worn now with ruffling and a tear, few rubs and grubby marks. Pencilled number and a pen mark on one picture face.
