C475
Corgi 475 Citroen Safari 'Corgi Ski Club'. Red skis and poles version. Near mint plus/boxed. Complete with Instruction Leaflet/Corgi Club Membership Form. From a beautiful, single-owner collection, some 25 years in the making.
Notes
Issued between 1965-68, this Citroen model has a creamy-white finish, brown dashboard and rear seats, pale green front seats. Complete with skier, red roof-rack, four red skis and four poles, still banded to the yellow roof rack. Clean and vivid bonnet transfer (one small edge nick).
A few little surface black dots on one door. Tiny dot on the outer rim of the bonnet transfer.
Model feature works well; i.e. the rear seats can be laid flat by operating the mechanism on the baseplate. Spring suspension is fine on shaped spun wheels. Fine, well-shaped original tyres. Comes with the often-missing Instruction leaflet/Corgi Club Membership Form too:
The box is very fresh and bright, on crisp card. Minor handling wear and a pen mark at an end flap. No tears. Plenty of end flap spring.
