C209
Corgi 209 Riley Pathfinder Police Car. Very near mint/boxed. Flat spun wheels first issue in the early blue picture box. Very near mint/boxed. From The 'Monty Calme' Corgi Collection.
Notes
The first Police car made by Corgi between 1958-61, first in a blue card box and then later in a blue and yellow box.
This first issue example is in very close to mint condition – with a gleaming gloss black finish, shiny flat spun hubs, intact Police sign on the roof, and original, notably straight aerial. Couple of barely noticeable small marks on the roof. Bright metal parts and strongly-coloured fresh original POLICE sign on the roof. Very nice!
Just the occasional minor mark.
Correct early Corgi ‘Moorgate’ Club Membership Form.
The pictorial card box has deep vivid colours. Strong sound feel. Minor grubbiness, light wear including a small storage crumple.
