Notes
A popular Corgi model from the Major Packs Emergency Vehicle range of toys.
The Simon Snorkel fire engine was made between 1964-74. This example has a Bedford cab, spun wheels, 6 firemen, water cannon, extending and rotating boom. Original fine tread tyres run well.  Version with pale gold boom jointed pipes.
Occasional little mark as you might expect. 
Harder to find version with fitted card insert (instead of the polystyrene tray). Couple of little tears and minor wear.
The lift-off lid card box is an early issue with lots of bright atmospheric artwork on the lid. 
Barely any wear at all on the lid which has vibrant strong colours and minimal wear.
Day-one vibrant colours on crisp clean card. Tiny wear only. 
Original leaflet is included.
