C475
Corgi 475 Citroen Safari '1964 Olympic Winter Sports'. Yellow skis and poles version. Very near mint/boxed. With Instruction Leaflet. From 'The New European' Collection.
Notes
Issued between 1964-65, this Citroen model has a crisp white finish, pale brown dashboard and rear seats, pale green front seats. Complete with skier, red roof-rack, four yellow skis and four poles. Clean and vivid bonnet transfer (tiny nick to the cream background of the transfer).
A few pinprick marks and very slight ‘orange peel’ quality to the paint finish in places.
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. Comes with the often-missing Instruction leaflet too.
The box is complete, bright and clean. Very crisp and fresh-looking. Very minor age wear only.
