Husky / Corgi Juniors by Mettoy #22a (Citroen Safari) Military Ambulance
|
|
In 1965 Corgi chose to make a military ambulance version of their #6a Citroen Safari ambulance as the new Husky #22. It was identical to the #6 civilian ambulance in every way except for its colour, satin dark olive green. It was always packaged in the standard red on white generic blisterpack and deleted from the range once stocks sold out early in 1968.
