Notes
A detailed and impressive fire engine from Corgi’s Major Pack range.
This articulated fire truck is complete with all six firemen and all sections of the telescopic ladder, jewelled headlights, aerial and perfect “American La France” lettering and crest transfers. Certainly, this model has never been played with. A few little marks that you have to search for. Complete with all delicate parts intact including the wing mirrors!
Detailed cast wheels in red. Rotating turntable and detachable tractor unit. Silver base.
Very close to mint condition.
The early light blue and yellow large cellophane-fronted window box has intact original cellophane. Card is bright and fresh, although there is a handling tear at one end flap edge. Little storage crush. Small area of surface loss at an end flpa due to the removal of a price label at some time.
Wonderfully vibrant detailed scene on the box reverse.
Moulded polystyrene inner sleeve is complete and intact.
Great to see that that this example comes with the rare original header card/retailer card.
