C808
Corgi 808 Basil Brush & His Car. Very near mint/boxed (very fresh but has a tear). With Sound Box & Laugh Tapes. Inspired by the early 1970's T.V. series. From The Monty Calme Collection.
Notes
A popular Corgi model made between 1971-1973 and part of the ‘Corgi Comics’ range of models. The inimitable Basil Brush character is seated inside his bright red and yellow car. In unused condition with a couple of negligible marks only.
Red plastic wheels and fine original ‘Corgi Toys’ embossed tyres.
Inside the box is a crisp, bright and clean ‘Sound Box’ containing intact laugh tapes. An ambitious idea from Corgi: the pieces of tape inside are meant to sound like Basil’s laughter when the instructions are followed.
Fresh, like new card pictorial stand.
The colourfully illustrated outer box looks very bright and crisp. Original cellophane is intact. Notable tear to the box underside however. Hard to fault otherwise.
