I like this David. It also brings back memories of these solid old trucks from when I was a nipper.

This is excellent David, great old truck.

Tradesmen of all types used these in the forties to sixties; milkmen, travelling ironmongers, and all sorts of delivery men. A regular sight in my childhood days and a great memory. Well done David.

Thanks everyone - I did enjoy painting this one . A little nostalgia in out latter years doesn’t hurt does it?

8x5" watercolour of a Bedford truck that once served an engineering business in Ross Tasmania. It was on show in the town historic vehicle event.
