C513
Corgi 513 Citroen Safari Alpine Rescue Car. Very near mint/boxed. With both figures. Yellow roof rack version. From The New European Collection.
Notes
Issued between 1970-72. In close to mint condition, with barely a mark. The Citroen is in all original white finish with a red roof and tailgate, bright and colourful, detailed Alpine Rescue labels on bonnet and doors. The car has detailed cast hubs and suspension on all four wheels. It comes complete with the yellow roof rack containing both poles, sled and skis. Also included are the figure and of course the St. Bernard dog, still beneath the plastic bubble.
The window box is complete, clean and bright with all end flaps and notably intact original cellophane.
Only minor handling wear. On the reverse, there is a very vivid pictorial scene of a rescue taking place.
A sought-after item from Corgi, especially in this condition.
