C269
Corgi 269 James Bond Lotus Esprit. Rare late detachable header card version with multi-lingual 'Not suitable for children under 36 months' print. Mint/boxed. From The Monty Calme Collection.
Notes
Usually found in the standard boxes with built in header cards, this item is in unused authentic condition -still firmly attached to its orange and yellow card insert by means of the two original plastic clips. A bright and fresh example, this model comes complete with a full sprue of rockets. The outer box is very fresh, crisp and bright as indeed is the number specific colour header card. Notably, the original cellophane is smooth and puncture-free. Light handling wear to the card.
Note that this version has multi-lingual print immediately below the header card ’ Not suitable for children under 36 months’.
Later version also present in The Monty Calme Collection.
A scarce later issue model – especially difficult to find in this condition.
