Our Touring Past

Well for the past 30 days I've sat at the computer at some point and looked at that poor little June caravan on the calendar, nose down in a ditch on the side of the road, and very unbecoming of such a fine specimen. I quite like the style of it and wonder each day if it is a home built or some particular brand that hasn't sprung to mind.

Any idea Richard??

Hi George.
It is a great looking van and a bit hard to tell if it was home built or not as I cant say I have seen another. If it wasn't a factory built van than the builder did a fantastic back yard job.The Photo was taken by Ursula Powys-Lybbe in 1947. The state library of Victoria has another photo of this van at the Hume Weir ( from memory ) but sadly I wasn't allowed to use it as it was still under copy right.
