Corgi 448 B.M.C. Mini Police Van with Tracker Dog. Spun wheels. Scarce version with a 'simpler' card plinth. Very near mint/boxed, with packing piece. From The Eric Morris Collection.
Notes
This popular Corgi model was issued between 1964-69. The Austin Police Mini Van has a deep blue-black finish with a red detailed interior and unmarked ‘POLICE’ lettering on both sides.
Suspension on shaped spun wheels, intact aerial, jewelled headlights. Barely a mark to the glossy paint finish.
Also included are the original figures of the police dog handler and tracker dog complete with his lead (often missing!). All safely slotted in to the ‘simpler’ card plinth (version without pictorial backdrop scene).
Small tear. Card is crisp.
The outer box is complete, bright and intact. Light wear. Crisp feel. Card packing piece included.
