Corgi 405 Bedford Fire Tender 'Fire Dept'. Very near mint/boxed. *Rare NON-MECHANICAL version*. Red, split screen, black ladders. Crisp, bright box. From 'The Berlin Collection'.
Notes
This is a rare non-mechanical version of the Bedford ‘FIRE DEPT’ Van finished in vibrant red with complete lettering and logo on both sides, black ladders, flat spun wheels, and a divided windscreen. Rare model in very close to mint condition.
Shiny base and untarnished metal parts. As-new original tyres.
The occasional negligible dot if you want to fault it.
The early blue pictorial box is so crisp, clean and bright. Light creasing on one side.
Few of these non-mechanical versions were made. An outstanding super scarce early commercial Corgi model.
