Tonibell (with cow) Bedford CA Ice Cream
This all over pink liveried Tonibell van represents one of the most famous ice cream vending companies of the 1960s.
The Tonibell vans, launched in 1960, were originally blue but changed to the 'hot pink' colour in 1969 and have remained in this colour scheme ever since. The Tonibell ice cream chimes were unique, as was the Tonibell cow on the roof, although this feature disappeared in the 1970s when the vehicle suppliers to the company changed. Their slogan was famous too - 'Make Mine a 99' - which was emblazoned on the sides of the van. There were lots of other colourful images to attract sales, including windows full of pictures and prices of the different ices on offer. Many of these have been faithfully reproduced on the Oxford replica, including the cautionary signs on the rear of the van - 'Slow' and 'Watch that Child'. The model carries the registration number DTU 250F .
