A vintage metal lunchbox, "School Bus" model, produced by the historic Spanish toy company Pascual y Valls, S.L. (Payva) from Ibi (Alicante), under official license from Walt Disney Productions. This item is a representative example of toy design and manufacturing in Spain during the 1960s.
The piece is decorated on all sides using lithography with illustrations of classic Disney characters, such as Mickey Mouse, Goofy, Pluto, Donald Duck and his nephews, Dumbo, Bambi, Alice, and Peter Pan, among others. The design detailedly mimics an American school bus, including the signage and mechanical elements on its base.
