EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 1920s, showcasing a brand new motor van proudly owned by Criddle and Smith Ltd. This esteemed company, known as the Furnishers of Cornwall, had established their presence in various locations including Truro and Penzance. The photograph captures the vehicle parked outside one of their premises on Kings Street or St Nicholas Street in Truro. The motor van stands as a symbol of progress and innovation during that era. Its sleek design and sturdy build reflect the company's commitment to providing reliable services to its customers. With "Cornish" written across its side, this van represents not only a means of transportation but also a representation of local pride. Criddle and Smith Ltd were renowned for their diverse range of services which included furniture removals, house agency, auctioneering, and valuations. They catered to the needs of individuals seeking assistance with relocating or acquiring new furnishings for their homes. Although we do not know who captured this remarkable image, it serves as a testament to the rich history woven into Cornwall's past. It offers us an intriguing glimpse into an era when businesses like Criddle and Smith Ltd played vital roles in serving communities throughout Cornwall.
