This model of Morris Minor car was used as a standard for the British Post Office from 1963 after using it almost 20 years, it was released from using it in 1972.
This enterprise of the British Post Office was established in 1660 by Charles II of England. It was the first country to initiate a system of Post Office. In order to honour the first initiator, a stamp of England, it was only a country that did not mention the country on the stamp. Trying to observe the British stamp you might see to it without country.
While the enterprise Morris car which was a close relation with the Mini that we are crazy about, it was established in 1913 by William Morris (1877-1963) . This die-cast Morris Minor Van is 8.5 cm. long, red colour body, black baseplate, a silver ladder on the roof, “Postal Engineering” logo. It has a small alphabet on the rim of the wheels in front and at the back that is 24 and 28. (It seems to be the pressure of the tire)

LAND ROVER IN DAKTARI
The die-cast Land Rover from the cinema TV, a set of Daktari was produced in China by Corgi Classic Ltd. The Length is 9.8 cm.
“Daktari” (a language of Swahilee, means Doctor) It was a story of a veterinarian who learnt a behavior of the animal in order to help every kind of animal in West Africa. Daktari was a television series that aired on CSB from 1966-1969. The show had distinctive accompanying music that was a fusion of jazz and African influences. Shelly Manne contributed music; he released an affiliated record, Daktari: Shelly Manne Performs and Conducts His Original Music for the Hit TV Show, on the Atlantic Records label in 1968. According to the liner notes on the album, Manne and his fellow percussionists play ankle and wrist jingles, Thailand mouth organs, aungloongs, ocarinas, vibraphones, tympani, and different kinds of marimba.
The original Corgi company never made another safari toy, but in 1998, new Corgi issued a commemorative Daktari set. No.07104 included the old 1/43rd scale Land Rover, but the wheels are different, and the rear window in the cab is larger. The black stripes are bolder, as are the Wameru transfers, which are now on the pick-up sides. Included with the vehicle are very good models of Judy the chimp and Clarence with his glasses. The box is particularly pleasing, with Daktari logo, Clarence artwork, publicity stills and photos of a Land Rover on Safari. Although it’s not a limited edition, it may prove a little harder to find than its contemporaries. Shop here.

I do not usually review item's I buy on Amazon yet I am so pleased with the quality and detail of this product, I just had to rave. I have been collecting die cast models from the Franklin and the Danbury mint's for the past 20 years. I first purchased an inexpensive fire truck for my son. He loved and appreciated it so much, I became interested. I examined it and was quite impressed. I bought him 3 others. I than ordered the entire presidential series after I bought the model of Kennedy's blue Lincoln. The paint finish is unmatched. The detail and molding is hard to believe. No details were missed! Even small presidential seals adhered to the inside back doors. There is even carpeting on the floor boards and trunk! It is much better quality than the mint's for a 3rd of the price. Try it, you'll be hooked. - Timothy P. Madrid "Timitzer"-CA
