From the U.S. children's TV series about a field vet in Africa, originally broadcast between 1966 and 1969 (Daktari is Swahili for Doctor).
The set features Corgi 438 Land Rover in green with black zebra stripes, grey base and pale yellow interior. 'WAMERU SUB-DISTRICT' and 'TJ67400' decals. Spun wheels with black tyres. There are 5 figures: Paula, Dr Marsh Tracy with chimp Judy on lap, Clarence the cross-eyed lion and a tiger sitting on the bonnet (tigers are quite rare in Africa!)
This set is complete and in excellent condition. The Land Rover has unblemished paintwork, Dr Tracy still has his stethoscope, and Clarence still has his spectacles! The box is worn: an end flap has torn off the inner tray, and the outer box has general wear also the window has no splits. A price of 9/10 (nine shillings and tenpence) is written on one end.
