Corgi Toys 428 Mr. Softee Ice Cream Van
Smith's Mister Softee Ice Cream Van by Corgi Toys, No. 428. Near mint plus/boxed. From Christoph's Collection.
Notes
Issued between 1963-66, this popular ice cream van has complete detailed transfers (save for one small scratch to one transfer) and spring suspension on all four wheels. Fine original tyres. Ice cream vendor will endlessly serve you with an ice cream cone through the sliding hatch at the front, if you turn the little knob on the baseplate.
Little extra drip of factory blue paint at the rear and a close inspection finds a few cream extra sweeps of paint and a couple of smaller dabs besides.
A nicely nostalgic item presented in a complete picture box with a crisp feel. Very light wear.
