C448
Corgi 448 B.M.C. Mini Police Van with Tracker Dog. Near mint plus/boxed, with packing. Exceptional outer box! From a private stash of models direct from the Corgi factory at time of manufacture.
Notes
A fine example of this popular Corgi model made between 1964-69. In close to perfect condition, this Austin Police Mini Van has a deep blue finish with a red detailed interior, shining shaped spun wheels with suspension, aerial, jewelled headlights and perfect ‘POLICE’ labels on both sides.
A little mark at the radiator top rim and a few around the rear opening doors.
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 clean, bright and fresh card plinth stand with a colourful backdrop. On the reverse, there is background information on both the B.M.C. Mini Van and the training of the Alsation police dog, and the work they do. The card plinth is close to perfect; crisp clean card complete with both pull-out end tabs. Small tear at the slot for the dog handler.
The outer box is in exceptional, pristine condition.
Complete with the card packing piece.
