C477
Corgi 477 Land-Rover Breakdown Truck. Near mint plus/boxed. Scarce in the BLUE & YELLOW WINDOW box. From The Monty Calme Collection.
Notes
A rich red Breakdown Truck with cast wheels and the distinctive Corgi dog logo ‘Breakdown Service’ labels complete on both sides.
Bright chrome finish to the jib, hook and spotlight on the roof. Suspension on detailed cast wheels. None of the usual chips at raised roof ribs or indeed at exposed edges.
Stray dot of factory silver on the bonnet and a small mark nearby. Couple of light factory assembly scratches on the passenger side window.
The blue and yellow cellophane-fronted box is a more difficult find. Very fresh and ever so crisp. Small storage crumple. Intact cellophane window. Shopkeeper’s period price label is still attached.
