Founded more than 130 years ago, the company that was known as Joseph Campbell Company parlayed its invention of condensed soup into an international powerhouse. Today, the Campbell Soup Company markets its richly varied line of soups and other products all over the world and the Campbell's Soup brand has gained universal recognition. Billions of bowls of Campbell's Soups are consumed every year.
And, throught the years, the company's stature has grown in part because of its clever advertising, often featuring one or more of the Campbell Kids.
Now a vintage advertisement from the 1920s is displayed on the sides of a vehicle manufactured by another great American company: Ford. A Campbell Kid holds a baseball bat and the little slugger utters a short poem extolling the idea that Campbell's Soups provide the strength needed to "win the hottest game." The company name appears on the doors and the line "21 kinds 10c a can" tells you that this ad is from the good old days. Precision-engineered to capture the details that made the 1926 Ford Model TT a coveted classic, this die-cast model is richly decorated with graphics that come straight from the Campbell's Soup Archives. Your officially authorized model is produced by - and available only from - Matchbox Collectibles.
