An excellent example of the Corgi Toys No. 71 Wheel Controlled Tandem Disc Harrow, produced in Great Britain by Corgi Toys between 1967 and 1972. Both the model and the original box are in very good condition, which is rare for a working vehicle of this nature and age.
This tandem disc harrow was part of Corgi's extensive agricultural series, which was very successful in the 1960s and 1970s. The models were not only intended for play but also realistically depicted the agricultural implements used in European fields at the time. The Corgi 71 was designed to complement other agricultural vehicles in the range, such as the Massey Ferguson tractors.
The model features rotating discs in a tandem arrangement and a working lift/wheel system that allows the implement to be placed in either a driving or working position. This mechanism was designed with great attention to detail, ensuring that the model still functions well today. The scale matches Corgi's popular 1:43 agricultural series, making it a perfect match for other models from the same period.
The original box is brightly colored, complete, and shows only minimal wear. The printing is clearly visible, and the box construction is sturdy – a nice complement to the well-preserved model.
A charming, functional piece from Corgi Toys' classic farming era – ideal for the collector of agricultural miniature toys or the enthusiast of authentic British diecast models.
