When sorting out my dads possessions we discovered a couple of corgi model cars one was a model of a ford model T van with Lyons tea advertising on its side.
Corgi is a Northampton firm that started making colorful pressed metal toys in 1930. In 1956 the first corgi model cars appeared. These cars are now collector's pieces.
The corgi Lyons tea van that I found was made around 1985. It was made as a collector's model. These cars are not really made for young children but for those aged over 14.
This model van measures 9cm long by 4cm wide it is 5 cm tall. This van is I believe a true copy of a Ford model T van. The Lyons tea van is made of a blue dye cast metal. On the side of the van are the Lyons name in gold and the company address in black. The roof of the van is white the radiator trim gold the wheels gold with black tires. The doors at the back and the side of this van are not able to be opened. The front window is a clear see through plastic. Inside the cab is a black seat for driver and passenger and I can see a steering wheel, this is a left hand drive vehicle.
This van is attractive, bright and shiny. Although not a collector I can see the attraction in these old corgi classic model vans I expect like my dad I shall put it away in a cupboard the grandchildren too young to appreciate it fully yet.
