This much-loved ‘musical’ version of Corgi’s Wall’s Ford Thames Ice Cream Van was initially produced in October 1965. Given the model number 474, it was launched just six months after an earlier edition, number 447, which had omitted the iconic five note chimes. The additional production cost of including the musical movement resulted in 447’s child and ice cream seller figures not being included.

Instead, Corgi created a new box design, complete with an illustrative insert card depicting expectant ice cream buyers queuing for their Wall’s ice cream or lolly. Cuts in this card allow it to be slotted into the open window of the ice cream van model to create a mini diorama.

Size: Length: 105mm x Width: 36mm x Height: 48mm

What a cracking model this is, just like the one I got for Christmas in the 60's.
Well done CMC 👏 👏

The same feeling of the original

Beautiful model and box.
It gaves you the same feeling of original model.

Anyone for a cornet

Just like the van that used to come around our street as kids. Not quite a tune calling you to cue and get an ice cream. Great model which brought back great memories memories.

Very good, 474 - Musical Ford Thames Wall's Ice Cream Van

Hello
The model is nice and well made, but I would like
that the decals were on from the beginning, which I think it was on the original car.
Then there's the music box, which I don't like the original, it certainly sounded much more even. This "loses" several different notes when cranked around, around
