EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this charming photograph of a Full Cream Dairy van, proudly serving the community of Victoria, Birmingham during the 1920s. This unique Ford van, shaped like a milk churn, was a common sight on the streets of the city, delivering fresh and creamy milk directly to residents' doors. The van's playful design, complete with a starting handle and a detailed milk churn body, added a touch of humor and whimsy to the daily milk delivery routine. The 1920s, also known as the Roaring Twenties, was a decade of great change and progress. This era marked the end of the horse and cart and the beginning of the motorized delivery vehicles. The Ford Model T, which was the most popular car during this time, paved the way for the mass production of automobiles, making them more affordable and accessible to the general public. The Cohens Full Cream Dairy van, with its milk churn shape, was a nod to the traditional dairy industry, while also embracing the new technology of the time. The van's round body and large wheels made it perfectly suited for navigating the narrow streets of Birmingham, ensuring that the fresh milk reached its destination safely and efficiently. This photograph not only captures a moment in time but also tells a story of innovation, tradition, and community. It is a reminder of a simpler era when milk delivery was a personal and important service, and the sight of a milk churn van was a familiar and comforting one.
