Notes
With a Corgi collection richly evoking the period between the late 1950?s through to the mid 1970?s, this large European Collection has been lovingly compiled by an enthusiast with particular emphasis on point of sale, including original cabinets and literature, prototypes, promotional items, alongside a high quality collection of individual models and Gift Sets.
This is the 2nd issue with a plastic canopy to the Land Rover and metal bars to the elephant cage. Version with black winching hook* on the elephant cage.
The Gift Set comprises:
