C200
Corgi 200 Ford Consul in TWO-TONE BROWN. Near mint/unboxed. Early sample/trial piece from 1956. Very rare item from 'The New European' Collection.
Notes
An exceptional collection of prototypes were purchased by ?The New European? Collector, largely originating from two well-documented sources i.e. the auction of the property of
Marcel Van Cleemput at Sotheby?s Auction House in 1999 and The Auction House in Germany during 2000.
Early sample or trial piece from 1956, this Ford Consul model is finished in two-tone brown with silver mid-line, flat spun wheels, window glazing, shiny baseplate. Fine original tyres, with ‘white wall’ labels applied. Never released in this colour finish.
Very rare item indeed.
