Notes
From one of the largest, private collections we have ever seen, with many items bought new at the time and stored away until now. Taken as a whole, the collection provides an exciting, kaleidoscopic snapshot of popular diecast toys issued during the 1960?s -1970?s.
This version comes with the Lamborghini in the more unusual vivid red finish, with jewelled headlights, white interior, gold steering wheel, black bonnet and boot details. Moulded bull figure on the silver baseplate. Opening boot reveals a bright gold detailed engine.
In unused gleaming bright condition, this car has just a few box rubs/marks at some exposed edges.
Complete with original bull figure.
The long, slim window box is a more difficult find (more often found in the slightly earlier, blue and yellow window box with polystyrene inner). Intact original cellophane. Minor marking to the inner card caused by the model. Pristine red and yellow card is extremely crisp.
Complete with Corgi Club Membership Form. Period price label at an end flap.
