Corgi 1138
Corgi 1138 Ford Articulated Transporter "CORGI CARS". Near mint plus/boxed (wear), with 2 packing pieces. From The Reference Collection.
Notes
A fresh and shining example of this popular Corgi model made between 1966-69.
Complete with both wing mirrors (including the reflective pieces), ladders at the side of the cab and roof horns (a little tarnished now). Bright silver side panels with Corgi dog logo on both sides. Yellow and black labels at rear are fresh and bright.
A few marks to the paint finish.
The *card stand on which the transporter sits, is complete and very bright with notably tear-free wheel slots. A little ‘depression’ caused by the weight of the model and note that it lacks one of the side pull-tabs.
Plenty of information on the box reverse.
Unusually, this item comes complete with both card inner packing pieces.
The pictorial end flap box is complete and has vivid colours. Some handling wear /foxing to the card and a couple of repaired tears.
