C462
Corgi 462 Commer Van "Hammonds". Near mint plus/boxed. Scarce promotional issue from The Swedish Collection.
Notes
This promotional model from Corgi issued during 1971 only, is in fine all original condition with complete Hammonds and ‘H’ labels on both sides and on rear doors. Green, blue and white finish with suspension on all four wheels. Cast hubs. Original fine tread tyres are well-shaped and supple. Scarce with a pleasing lustre!
Just a couple of little marks on the roof. A small area of paint loss on the base.
The box typically is plain blue and yellow. At the end flaps, the white panels have the correct number 462 written, along with the handwritten ‘Hammonds’ wording in the same ink. Complete, feeling crisp. Small area of surface loss on one surface. Minor age wear besides. No tears and no graffiti.
