Notes
Rare to come to the market place.
This is an exceptionally scarce Belgian issue – and an especially welcome sight is the original ‘TOURING SECOURS" label on the box*!
An *early issue Land Rover’ finished in brilliant yellow, with shiny flat spun wheels. Roof sign has complete ‘RADIO’ lettering and intact ‘TS’ logo on both sides of the tin tilt. Original aerial. Tinplate base ( tarnishing dots). Front bumper on struts. No interior.*
Shiny flat spun wheels and fine original tyres.
In all original, close to mint condition.
Note the small (probably factory assembly) scratch immediately behind the roof sign. An honest example which has the occasional small mark/dot to the paint finish. It is often the case that a high profile model such as this would be found with subtle (or not) retouches – pleased to say this example is in all original condition.
The pictorial box is clean and bright with original* ‘TOURING SECOURS’ labels on both sides*. Crisp feel to the card. Small area of surface loss at an end flap and old tape residue which kept the box closed. Light wear. Corgi Club Membership Form is included.
