Vintage Ringtons Tea Ceramic Money Box Ford Escort 55 Van

This is a wonderful Vintage Ringtons Tea Ceramic Money Box Ford Escort 55 Van. In good unused condition, with no chips, cracks or restoration.

It is marked on the base with the Ringtons Logo.  It is boxed but the box is a little bit scruffy, with small tears in the cardboard, and has also discoloured.

The black and Ringtons liveried car does have manufacturing defects, including pin holes and other blemishes in the glaze. Wade pottery will have made the it for Ringtons.

A quirky Money box in the shape of a Ford Escort 55 Van with a black stopper on the base to enable you to retrieve your money and there is a coin/note slot in the top.

Approximate Box Size:-
Width: 23.2 cm
Depth: 9.4 cm
Height: 11.8 cm

A nice gift for a collector of commemorative items or for automobilia, it was made to commemorate the replacement of the liveried Ringtons Ford Escort 55 Diesel Delivery Van fleet, introduced in the 1970s, with the Ford Connect Van.
