Notes

In all original condition, this desirable Gift Set comprises:

a) Corgi 1128 Priestman Cub Shovel. Just a few little marks away from mint. Intact original black rubber tracks. Perfect ‘Priestman Cub’ transfer at the side and rear of the vehicle. Mechanism for raising and lowering the jib works well. Cab containing driver is glazed.

b) Corgi 1131 Bedford TK Machinery Carrier. In near mint condition and notably complete with both wing mirrors, including the little reflective ‘mirror’ pieces. Black detachable rear axle and moveable ramps. Spun shaped hubs. cComplete with both spare tyres. Few little marks on the grey bed and the inevitable marks on the black detachable rear axle (where metal meets metal).

Box base is made of polystyrene and is clean and bright with light blue Corgi Toys lettering.

However, 2 pieces of the polystyrene are missing now.
The colourful pictorial lid is bright and complete, no splits or tears. Very minor handling wear only. No graffiti.

Nice to see that this example comes complete with the often missing Instruction Leaflet/Corgi Club Membership Form, too. Unfolded Corgi Club Membership Form is also included:

All in all, a sought-after set made around 1963.
