This book covers the entire period of production from the first 24 models in 1956 to the last designs in 1983. Marcel Van Cleemput was the chief designer at Corgi for many years – in late 1954 he produced the very first drawings for the Corgi range and was involved in every single model until the company’s demise in 1983. Little outer sleeve corner crush.
This particular issue contains this very near mint pale blue & yellow Routemaster Bus with complete labels throughout.
With numbered certificate 2349.
