CAPTAIN MALCOLM CAMPBELL'S BLUE BIRD. LEGENDARY LAND SPEED RECORD CAR.....

The record breaking car driven by Captain Campbell way back in 1931, at almost 250 mph..... Shortly after setting the then world record, Malcolm Campbell was knighted for his efforts. GUNTHERMANN'S WONDERFULLY IMPRESSIVE TINPLATE MODEL, WITH WORKING CLOCKWORK MOTOR. HUGE SIZE AT 52 cm......

STILL WITH ITS LOVELY SCARCE BOX.... IMPRESSIVE REPRESENTATION OF THE REAL CAR, WITH OPEN COCKPIT.... ORIGINAL FIGURE STILL SITTING BEHIND THE CANOPY;PLUS THE HIGH REAR FIN AND AERODYNAMIC WHEEL SPATS.

TIN LITHO IN BLUE, WITH YELLOW/WHITE DETAILING. STILL RETAINS ITS GREAT LOOKING EMBLEMS/DECALS...

UNION JACK & STARS AND STRIPES FLAGS ETC.. SPLENDID LOOKING LARGE DISC WHEELS.

SCARCE CARD BOX IS NICEST I'VE SEEN... JUST ODD SCUFF, AGE MARKS, CREASE... BUT NO TAPE REPAIRS OR CUTS/TRIMMING; EVEN RETAINS MUCH OF THE PATTERN PRINTING ON OUTER BOX SIDES (WHICH FADES COMPLETELY ON MOST EXAMPLES). VERY ATTRACTIVE PAPER LABEL DISPLAYS NICELY...

TINPLATE CAR STILL LOOKS GREAT..... BEEN SITTING IN MY CABINET LONG TIME, SO WANTS A GOOD DUSTING! CAR DISPLAYS LOVELY, WITHOUT THE USUAL HEAVY CRAZING, RUSTING OR PANEL DEFORMITY. FINISH IS BRIGHT AND LIVELY...

CAR IS NEARLY 90 YEARS OLD SO HAS ODD MARK, SCUFF;AND AROUND LOWER REAR FIN DISPLAYS WITH SOME ANCIENT/ POSSIBLY FACTORY TOUCH UP. UNDERSIDE IS ALSO VERY NICE LOOKING.... WITH JUST ODD INNER SURFACE TARNISH, WHICH I'VE NEVER TRIED TO CLEAN.... CLOCKWORK MECHANISM IS PRETTY SPOTLESS.

ORIGINAL WHEELS ALSO DISPLAY NICELY WITHOUT HEAVY WEAR. THE RARE ORIGINAL KEY STILL WITH INSTRUCTION/OPERATING TAG......

WHEELS SPIN AND CAR "SPEEDS" FORWARD. WITH ITS EVEN RARER BOX & KEY + INSTRUCTION TAG. All offers welcome & considered. I've added all the images i can, to hopefully show the honest/accurate condition...
