The Bread Man
A Co-op electric bread delivery van 1950/60's. He would bring the bread to your door in a wicker basket with extras, such as fresh cream cakes. This one was on show at a Stirchley co-op open day. He would be a very friendly sort of a guy, who you wouldn't hesitate to ask in for a cup of tea.
Co-Op Butchers
