Corgi 225

Notes

Issued between 1961-65, this item is more usually found with a red paint finish. This version, in light primrose yellow, is a scarce and sought-after version. In very close to perfect, original condition, with just a couple of very small chips at the rear and the occasional really small mark besides.
Suspension on flat spun wheels. Well-shaped original treaded tyres.

Base is early, with part-exposed axles and Pat. App. ends in 59. Label applied to base.

For comparison only, this is the example to the left of this image – a slightly paler lemon shade compared to the other example from this collection.

Occasional small mark to the paint finish.
The box is bright and complete with all end flaps. Small corner crumple and a little surface scuff.
