A Captain Scarlet Ice Cream Van!
Like it?
Wow, what a great sight. Not something I have ever seen.
Who on Earth is using 'old' Captain Scarlet, from the 60s, as an advertising gimmick for ice cream, in 2023. Even New Scarlet is old hat now. I can't imagine any young kids today are familiar with him at all !
My thoughts exactly, Mish! I didn't see this personally, my wife saw it and snapped a pic because she knows my... predelictions!
What the photo does not reveal is Captain Black at the counter vending explosive '99' cones.
It says Hot Dogs on the bonnet. It could be wurst!
Wow, my two favorite things in the world - Supermarionation and Ice Cream - in one location!!! How do I get to this paradise??? SFZ
Yummy! Does it serve Spectrum Patrol Vanilla?
I think there's a van like this in Dennis Nicholson's Andersonalia guidebook under miscellaneous!
