This particular model was sold on ebay by George’s Good Stuff in December 2013 for £305 in the following condition:
This is a fantastic prime investment piece, one of several from a single private collection, owned by a collector who amassed perfect/near perfect examples of some of the rarest Corgi models in the range and kept them in display cabinets for many years before finally selling his entire collection … most of them in perfect pristine museum-quality condition, and all in perfect or near-perfect boxes, many unmarked, and with all the original extras included.
If you are a serious collector and have been trying to track down the finest examples of Corgi’s many great and rare models, then this one is definitely for you… it is quite simply one of the finest examples you’re ever likely to see.
One of many great original vintage diecast models and boxes and other high quality nostalgic collectables in our ebay store… click the logo above or below to see the many others available!
Model condition – this beautiful two-tone car is 99% mint perfect, there are just a couple of tiny factory finishing micromarks, but otherwise the car is completely unmarked, an outstanding showcase museum-quality example of a very hard to find model, superb 9.9/10
Box condition – the very rare later issue blue and yellow box is pretty much perfect, very crisp clean and bright, beautiful straight edges, all flaps and tabs strong and crisp and intact, minimal wear, tiny 2/9 price on one end flap, just fantastic 9.9/10
