Buyer's Premium:

A collection of five die-cast model fire engines manufactured by Corgi, featuring both 1:50 scale limited edition and Showcase Collection models. The primary item is a Corgi Under Fire 1:50 scale limited edition replica of a Seagrave K Pumper, representing the Washington Fire Co. No. 1 of Delanco, New Jersey. This model is finished in lime-yellow livery with Delanco Fire Dept markings, a circular unit number 1 emblem, and the number 2111 on the rear body roof. The lot also includes four models from the Corgi Showcase Collection Fire Heroes series. These comprise a white truck marked Engine 1, a red pumper marked P.F.D., a white vehicle featuring a stars and stripes American flag pattern on the cab roof, and a white and blue liveried model. The engines are constructed from die-cast metal with plastic components for ladders, hoses, and emergency lighting. Four of the models are accompanied by their original manufacturer window display boxes.


Condition report:

The die-cast models appear to be in excellent condition. The original packaging for the 1:50 scale model shows moderate shelf wear, including creasing to the cardstock and scuffing along the edges. The smaller Showcase Collection window boxes exhibit typical signs of retail wear, such as softened corners and minor abrasions to the transparent plastic windows.
