Notes
Issued between 1968-74, this early issue version contains:
’Zebra-striped Land-Rover with an intact circular ‘LIONS OF LONGLEAT’ label on the bonnet. Opened hatch on the cab roof shows the keeper complete with the (usually missing!) rifle. Shiny cast wheels with suspension.
Just a couple of marks at the rear.
Also included is the plastic lion’s den, correct with two male lions, one female lion. All three are fixed in place with the little sticky pads applied to the polystyrene plinth and den. Three portions of meat and a red barrel are also still present. So the full complement of accessories!
The polystyrene plinth looks clean and fresh. Very small piece missing.
The card box is crisp and clean. Vibrantly-coloured, undamaged card.
Pristine colourful card backdrop. Intact smooth original cellophane. Only the most minor wear.
Notably, this example comes complete with the original, very fresh and bright detachable header card/retailer card.
