Manufacturer description

Ice cream van collectors may recall our 1:43 scale Bedford CA Ice Cream Van in Lyons Maid livery, long sold out! However, for those of you who missed out, here it is again this time in 1:76 scale in the same livery. The pale blue and yellow colour scheme on the CA van comes with simplistic Lyons Maid graphics typical of the era, printed in red out of white above the split windscreen and then again along the sides. There is the appearance of moulded roof boards along the edges of the roof which are left plain pale blue, whilst the promotion of the limited Lyons Maid range of the day comprises illustrations on the window to the right of the serving hatch. This diminutive model brings back nostalgic memories of childhood when choices were much fewer and you were grateful for what you got!
