Notes
This collector wanted only the best examples in his collection ? always a discerning buyer of the finest examples he could find. After over 25 years, he has now decided to part with items from his own extensive collection.
This is one of them.
Issued between 1962-68. A most attractive prestige car with a pale grey lower and a palest grey body. Vivid red interior with chauffeur. Notably complete with an intact bonnet emblem and chrome plated trim virtually unmarked. The windows can be raised or lowered. Shaped spun wheels and a matt baseplate (period label still affixed). Model has prestomatic (i.e. fingertip) steering. Suspension.
just a couple of the merest dots to the paint finish – as close to mint as one can reasonably get!
The card picture box is complete and clean with bright colours. Very minor storage crumple. Minor handling wear. Period label at an end flap. Comes complete with the serrated tear-off tab.
