Item Description and Bidding/ Shipping Cost and Policy/ Payment Instructions:One (1) Matchbox Lesney Lincoln Continental 31 c2; sea green body, cream plastic interior; unpainted metal base, bumpers, and ...grille casting; clear window insert; 10 x 36 black plastic wheels; B type base with tow guide. Stannard catalogue casting code 3 of 4. This outstanding model is in very near mint condition. It was introduced in September, 1964 and was sold in this type and a similar model in metallic teal blue (Mack). There exist 4 distinct Stannard code types. This is a Stannard code 2 as above described. It is approximately 73 mm in overall length. Please carefully examine the high definition photos for the beautiful, flawless virgin original sea green paintwork detail. The window insert is clean and clear as new. The wheels show no wear from use. The unpainted metal base casting is very bright. The boot lid works as it should. There are no casting or mechanical defects. This Continental will display as brand new. Additional photographs can be sent to your e-mail address and questions will be entertained up to 4 hours prior to auction end.
I make the complimentary box which will be sent with the model. They are constructed of correct weight tag board. They are laser printed so they will be somewhat glossier than an original Lesney era box, which was printed with lithography. This box is intended for display and storage purposes with a genuine Lesney Products model only. Please do not pay before we send you an invoice. After all items upon which youintend to bid have closed, you may ask for an invoice. For deliveries outsideof the US, we will make sure that proper, lowest cost combined shipping is applied. Fordomestic deliveries, waiting for the invoice will ensure that all of the itemsyou have won are captured and combined in one package.
It is understood that all images of items used in this listing are of original, genuine Lesney products. Only the model itself is being offered for sale in this listing unless expressly stated otherwise in the description. The box is a gratuity.
Not responsible for errors in Stannard code although we do our best to properly code the casting. See our return policy. 2. Grading:VNM = Very Near Mint. The paintwork is, for all practical purposes, close to new. Original factory flaws will be noted in the listing if they exist. All original accessories are present.
NM = Near Mint. Restoration unnecessary. The paintwork is nearly perfect, clean, shiny and bright on all exterior surfaces (except for possibly the base, if painted). Original, virgin paintwork approaches 100% with the possible exception of any factory paint flaws or very minor storage (not impact) wear. Negligible rolling use of the wheels may be present. The model is mechanically perfect. All original appliques and accessories are present.
EXC = Excellent. Minor paintwork and/or applique imperfections may exist, usually due to improper storage, not play, and will be evident in the photos. Paintwork imperfections may have been restored. Decals or other appliques may have been replaced with replicas. For this grade, no mechanical problems exist, including windows, if applicable, and no such repairs have ever been performed, in our opinion. Minor wheel use may be evident. All original accessories are usually present for this grade. If not, what is missing or replaced with replica parts will be disclosed. 3.
