Notes
Incredibly difficult to find – this colourful detachable header card was given out, we surmise, to just a few of the larger Corgi shops at the time when a retailer box of Monkeemobiles was ordered.
Only the fourth we have ever offered for sale.
The Monkeemobile model was inspired by the t.v. show ‘The Monkees’ and was issued between 1968-72. A superb example with a bright red finish, white roof (notably unblemished – a fine example since often the paint finish on the white roof can tend to be thin), detailed cast wheels and well-shaped tyres. All four figures inside the Monkeemobile!
The model does not appear to have ever been removed from the box.
Crisp, card and cellophane box has original intact cellophane. Fresh and brightly-coloured, looking as-new. Please note that the box may have to be opened carefully (just one set of end flaps) in order to secure for posting to the new owner.
Virtually pristine original header card.
An exceptional example throughout.
