As you can see it's in excellent condition despite being 40 years old. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" style=\"margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0;\"\u003eIve done some research on this and from what I can tell it's:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" style=\"margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe easy bit:\u003c\/b\u003e a large sized cooler box which was definitely made in 1986. It measures 37 x 38 x 26cm (exterior) and will hold about 10 cans\/bottles of beer - eniugh to get you through penalties. More than tall enough to hold plenty of wine bottles if thats your preference (obviously, plus loads of ice too). It has a locking lid, top handle and is a pretty sturdy case. You can actually use the lid as a tray - has spaces for 6 cans. Will keep your drinks cold for hours and it's nice and clean - ready to go!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" style=\"margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe middle bit:\u003c\/b\u003e it was made by Bachelors who as far as I'm aware make soup - hot soup. Not sure why but they definitely made this box - their name is embossed all over the top. Doesn't make much sense but Bachelors who make hot soup created an ice box\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" style=\"margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe difficult bit:\u003c\/b\u003e this is where it gets really confusing...there's a metal enameled St George's Flag attached to the front. It was made in 1986 when the world cup was held in Mexico so I can only deduce that Bachelors were the \"official soup provider\" for the England team during the tournament. Its obviously a promotional item so perhaps Bachelors just wanted to get their name out there and associated with the team - so they made this! \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" style=\"margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0;\"\u003eI can't find any more like this anywhere so it must have been a very limited run. Most likely this is the last one left on Earth. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" style=\"margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0;\"\u003eBeyond the odd story behind it, its actually a really useful item for the World Cup. Ever missed a critical goal because you were getting a top up from the fridge? I have (David Platt, England v Belgium,Italia '90 - still remember this happening!). This will eliminate that occurrence. Also - its a really cool item! \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" style=\"margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0;\"\u003eFeel free to ask any questions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" style=\"margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0;\"\u003eShipped Royal Mail 48 hours tracked (too big to go through as a small parcel thus the price)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" style=\"margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0;\"\u003eInternational trade welcome through Ebay's global shipping program.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" style=\"margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0;\"\u003eHonest and reliable seller with over fifteen years top rated experience online.
