A typical hand-propelled ice cream wagon of the early decades of the 20th century. Pictured on the Penzance Promenade at the bottom of Morrab Road in the 1920s, it was owned by the Scoble family who were well-known ice cream makers of the era. The gilded headboards of the wagon read, "Scoble's Ices, Guaranteed Pure and Made Fresh Daily", A McVitie & Price biscuit tin can also be seen.
