Notes

This blue and white Commer Van has a bright mid-blue interior, and a more difficult find with cast wheels. As-new Corgi tyres with ‘Corgi Toys’ embossed. Suspension is fine. Note that this version has a gold tripod, more often found with a silver tripod. Complete with intact ‘Samuelson Film Service Limited’ paper label on both sides of the van. Includes the little black plastic opening equipment case, 3 position cameraman and his rotating camera.

Note the probably factory chip of paint at the front edge of the grey platform.
The header card picture box is bright with vivid colours. Crisp. The large header card has a very light crease at the reverse where it meets the box (usually a heavier crease is found at this point). Header card stands straight (quite often these large header cards can flop forwards, but not this one). The original cellophane window is still in place and notably intact.

The colourful card inner is bright, clean and crisp. Little edge ruffle to the additional card piece where it has come into contact with the edge of the van.
Small card packing piece present too.
