Notes
A rare find!
This metallic blue and white Commer Van has a cream interior (rare find). Complete with intact ‘Samuelson Film Service Limited’ paper labels on both sides. Includes the little black plastic opening equipment case, 3 position cameraman and his rotating camera. Suspension on spun wheels. As-new Corgi tyres with ‘Corgi Toys’ embossed.
Small mark head-on and a very small light scuff at a rear opening door. Couple of tiny marks besides. Note the as-made bend to one of side rails.
The header card picture box is complete, brightly-coloured and clean. So often, the large header cards become very creased and worn with the result that they do not stand up straight. This example has fared better than many.
Just a very faint crease at the reverse where it meets the box, but it stands upright and so displays well. Little top edge corner crease. Three small punctures to the original cellophane window. Small side edge tear to the inner. Light wear to the bright orange card inner. No wheel slot tears.
Includes a small original blue card packing piece. Corgi Club Membership Form.
This version rarely comes to the market place.
