Notes
To mark the occasion of the N.G.M.W. (Northern Group of Motoring Writers) Annual Dinner at the Grosvenor Hotel on April 29th 1977, this special issue Routemaster Bus is finished in silver with printed Menu at the sides and rear. (Melon with sorbet ice, goujons of plaice etc.!) Pictured in the Great Book of Corgi on page 456.
An extremely scarce item and typically missing from most bus collections, this example is in mint condition, complete with the special mirror-finish card box. Only those attending the dinner were given a commemorative bus!
