Notes
Issued between 1971-72, this Pontiac Parisienne model Police Car is finished in crisp white with a black textured roof and complete fresh original POLICE labels throughout, siren and roof light. Notably complete with both chromed aerials, albeit rather bent now.
They can be extended and retracted by using the switches on the base, but we are reluctant to do so, since they can often break during this operation. Number plates front and rear. Bright chrome wing mirrors.
Occasional tiny mark and very minor roof marking.
The pictorial box is complete, clean and bright. Very crisp card. Little thumb tear at a small end flap seam. Period shop price abel still in place at an end flap (most of the toys from this collection were bought from the same toy shop at time of issue). Original owner has written his name (neatly) in pen on one box face.
