C468
Corgi 468 London Transport Routemaster Bus 'Let's Take A Trip To Gamages'. Near mint plus/boxed. Scarce promotional issue.
Notes
One of the hard to find Routemaster buses – and the first we have handled in ages!
In close to perfect condition with a gleaming bright red original paint finish. Nicely detailed bus with all the little details, not present in later issues.
Complete and bright ‘Gamages’ labels on both sides (very light edge wear). Couple of negligible dots to the paint finish.
The crisp and bright cellophane-fronted box looks very fresh with intact original cellophane. Little edge crumple to the card (at cellophane edge). Light ‘speckling’ in the print (as made). Small scuff at one side of the card plinth. Card is very crisp.
Issued during 1968.
