Notes
A popular Corgi set issued between 1966-69, and notably complete with the rare ‘Opening Tailgate’ sign!
This set comprises:
1) Corgi 491 Ford Consul Super Estate Car in deep metallic blue finish with “wood” side panels, suspension on bright shaped spun wheels, jewelled headlights, cream interior and opening tailgate. Bright chrome.
Model has just a couple of little marks (little rub at two door handles and a few tiny dots besides).
2) Golfer, caddie and trolley; all original and as-new!
Inner card stand has vibrant colours on crisp barely handled card. Small wear to one slot for the golf clubs (minor). Thankfully, no tears at the wheel slots or at the slots for the figures. Both pull-out tabs intact. Overall impression is as-new!
The outer box is fresh, bright and clean. Crisp, silky card. Shopkeeper’s price at an end flap. Very minor age wear only.
Rarely seen with this sign included:
Couple of very small stains on the reverse of the Opening Tailgate sign. Corgi Club Membership Form is included too.
