Corgi Toys 290 Kojak Buick
Kojak Buick by Corgi Toys, No. 290. Very scarce authentic 'Hatless Kojak' issue. Assumed mint/boxed. With both figures, detachable roof light and badge. Starting bid £250. Please note that QDT apply 12.5% buyer's commission.
Notes
A very sought-after early issue – this Kojak’s Buick is a vivid metallic bronze with 12-spoke wheels. The figure of Kojak is without a hat and also in evening dress. Note too that Crocker (in the car) is wearing a mid-blue jacket (as in the standard issue).
This set comes complete with the unapplied self-adhesive badge and the detachable roof light.
The card backdrop and card inner are complete, crisp and bright. Note a little polystyrene post which props open the door has either broken off or was never formed properly.
The outer box is complete and bright with vivid graphics. Look very fresh with smooth intact original cellophane.
No graffiti. Happily free of the expected crease at box reverse where header joins the main body of the box. Very small end flap tear. Still gives the impression of old shop stock.
