Notes
This model is in very close to pristine condition – you can generally find a flaw if you look long enough!
This model has a very pale green finish, flat spun wheels, black painted baseplate. Brightly-coloured and complete “HOME SERVICES” label above the cab window and at rear, as well as vivid , fresh “HYGIENIC MOBILE SHOP” labels at the sides. Not often found this nice!
Delightfully-detailed grocer shop window scene with ‘Sugar Puffs’ especially high-lighted! Peeping through the rear windows, one can see the grocer behind his counter waiting for customers.
Couple of negligible marks away from mint.
More often found in the powder blue box, this model comes in the blue and yellow pictorial box. Minor age wear only including a tiny start of a tear.
Includes the early ’Moorgate" Corgi Club Membership Form.
This model was in production between 1957-62.
