Matchbox Models of Yesteryear Y29 – 1919 Walker Electric Van, Harrods Ltd (1985)

-

Step back in time with this finely detailed Matchbox Models of Yesteryear Y29 die-cast model, a replica of the 1919 Walker Electric Van proudly carrying the Harrods Ltd livery.

-

Originally manufactured in Chicago by the Walker Vehicle Company, these electric vans were introduced in London during the early 1920s. Harrods Knightsbridge operated a fleet of sixty of them, painted in the distinctive green and cream colours seen here. They became a familiar sight delivering goods across the capital, with a range of 50–60 miles per charge and a top speed of 12 mph – a true innovation in early electric transport.

-

This model, issued in 1985, recreates the Harrods Walker van in remarkable detail:

Authentic Harrods Ltd branding with crest and “By Special Appointment” inscription.

Matchbox Models of Yesteryear Y29 edition.

Marked on base: Made in England, Matchbox International Ltd, 1985.

Comes with its original box (showing light wear).

-

Size: approx. 10 cm long

Condition: Excellent die-cast model; box has minor shelf wear consistent with age.

-

A wonderful piece for Matchbox collectors, vintage toy enthusiasts, or Harrods memorabilia fans, celebrating the blend of luxury retail and early electric motoring history.

Great item, was a glass jar with contents, well packaged, with a fragile label attached, arrived no problems. A near perfect example of a 50s/60s Hopkin and Williams chemical bottle. The postage was fair, the item was as described and a good value, especially with contents.
