Notes
A very pleasing example from the popular Corgi “Bloodhound” military range issued between 1959-61. In complete condition, with working mechanism for raising and lowering the mid section, with brass hydraulics. Pivotting drawbar.
All original military green finish with shining flat spun wheels, as-new original fine tread black tyres including the spare.
Note that the original owner has rubbed the paint finish in two small areas of the missile wings support section in order to reveal the bright metal beneath. Little mark besides.
The colourful pictorial box is bright and split-free. Intact inner packing piece, into which the model fits securely. Promotional ‘Rocket Age’ Booklet.
