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.
Glossy paint finish is very close to mint.
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). Card is crisp. Complete with buth pull-tags.
The outer box is complete and bright. Very small puncture and light wear. Crisp feel. Card packing piece included.
