Buyer's Premium:

This assortment of vintage-style commercial model vehicles comprises several boxed sets and individual models from noted British manufacturers. A primary component is The Classic Drinks Collection by Cameo Collectables, which consists of a set of ten vintage model vehicles in their original presentation box. Each vehicle features a unique alcohol brand livery, including Smirnoff, Bombay Sapphire London Dry Gin, Croft Original, Archer’s Peach County Schnapps, Le Piat d’Or, Malibu, J&B Rare, Gilbey’s Gin, Drambuie, and Blue Nun.

The collection also includes individual boxed models from the Matchbox Models of Yesteryear series, specifically a Kellogg’s Rice Krispies red double-decker bus and a Y-12 1912 Model T Ford. Further models include Lledo and Days Gone style vehicles such as a Catherine Cookson’s Country South Tyneside bus, a Walker’s Christmas Pudding delivery van, and an H. Warburton Diamond Jubilee Bakery horse-drawn van. A commemorative model celebrating the 10th Wedding Anniversary of Prince Charles and Princess Diana (1981-1991) is also present. Completing the group is a Bentleys English Heritage Collection Victorian Era Passenger Train set, which remains housed in its original long presentation box and is sealed in its original outer plastic wrap. All vehicles are constructed from die-cast metal with plastic detailing and feature free-rolling wheels. Box markings indicate production in Great Britain and England.
