Lot 173: A Vintage Corgi Timpsons Livery AEC Regal Coach
A vintage Corgi Timpsons livery AEC Regal coach, featuring a die-cast metal body finished in a traditional two-tone cream and maroon operator scheme. The model is decorated with red script lettering reading ‘Timpsons’ to the side panels and front, alongside a destination blind marked ‘CROYDON’ and registration plates reading ‘DXE 370’. The black plastic chassis is embossed with the manufacturer’s name ‘CORGI’ and the model identification ‘AEC REGAL COACH’. The coach is housed in a Corgi Classics illustrated card box, although the packaging is specifically for model number ‘97180’ in ‘Grey-Green’ livery, representing a mismatch with the Timpsons coach contained within. The box is printed with the ‘CORGI’ logo, ‘GREY-GREEN COACHES’, and ‘Grey Green A.E.C. Regal’.
