C269
Corgi 269 James Bond Lotus Esprit. Very, very near mint/boxed. Version without the 'New' tag on the box. From The Lancashire Collection.
Notes
An iconic James Bond-related item, inspired by the film ‘The Spy Who Loved Me’, first issued during 1977 (box is dated 1977 on the box reverse). In unused, virtually mint condition (couple of as-made dots on the roof), with a complete sprue of missiles.
The ‘film strip’ header card box is clean, bright and complete. Version without the ‘New’ tag or ‘hammer & sickle’ detail to the second ‘0’ of 007. Barely any wear at all and no crease at header-card reverse either.
Box has been carefully prised open just once in order for us to check contents.
A hard find in this unused condition.
