Notes

A sought-after Corgi model in original condition with all four figures of John, Paul, George and Ringo.
Red hatches issue.

C803p661

All transfers look bright and fresh and the periscope is undamaged, rotating when the model is pushed along. Hatches open and close well.
Just a couple of little marks to the paint finish at the rear point. Notably, the transfers are all intact. Complete plastic propellor, too.
The box is fresh and bright with deep blue inner (just a couple of little tears to this very fragile inner).
The colourful artwork is a delight! .
The box is happily free of the usual crease at header card reverse. Minor wear only and the cellophane window has a tiny nick. .
A very pleasing example of this popular and sought-after original toy!

Additional item:
From the paperwork belonging to Marcel Van Cleemput (Chief designer for Corgi) comes these images of the Yellow Submarine from all different angles. These photocopied sheets were used to help to design the Yellow Submarine model. Paperwork purchased by The Old School Collector at the Losch Auction, Germany, where many items belonging to the designer for Corgi were sold.
