(Melon with sorbet ice, goujons of plaice etc.!) Pictured in the Great Book of Corgi on page 456.
An extremely scarce item and typically missing from most bus collections, this example is in mint condition, complete with the special mirror-finish card box. Only those attending the dinner were given a commemorative bus!
