1927 Ford A Lyons' Tea Y-21

Ford Model A – Lyons' Tea Delivery Vehicle

A period advertising vehicle from the Models of Yesteryear range, this Y-21 presents the Ford Model A as a branded Lyons' Tea delivery vehicle. Its commercial bodywork and large advertising panels make it a natural companion to the many food, drink and retail liveries produced across the Yesteryear series.

Matchbox Models of Yesteryear Y-21

Y-21 was used by Matchbox for Ford Model A commercial-bodied variants and became a useful platform for advertising liveries. The Lyons' Tea version combines the familiar Ford front-end styling with a delivery body intended to showcase period branding.

Ford Model A Commercial Details

The casting features the Model A's upright radiator and bonnet, separate-style lamps, period wheels and a practical rear body. These details give it the appearance of an inter-war delivery vehicle rather than a passenger car.

Lyons' Tea Advertising

The Lyons' Tea branding links the miniature with one of Britain's historic tea and catering names, giving the model added interest to collectors of food-and-drink advertising as well as vintage commercial vehicles.

A Classic Collectible

A charming addition to a Matchbox, Lesney, Ford or advertising collection, this Y-21 combines classic Model A styling with the nostalgic appeal of a British tea-delivery livery.
