"Here are two pics
of Lunn's removal vans .
John H Lunn became part of the Bishop's Move
group around the late-1930's.
My uncle Alex Blackwood was the managing
director and my father, Lawrence Blackwood, was an estimator for the firm."

Questions
"1. Does anyone
recognise any of the people in these two photos of Lunn's removal vans?
2. What make are the
vehicles are in these two photos?"

Bedfords
The badges on the radiators of the two vehicles in
the second photo show that they are Bedford vans. I don't know the
years or the models, but no doubt somebody else will be able to come up
with more information about them.

Advertising Pamphlet
"These two photos come
from an old advertising pamphlet for Lunn's Removals.
This pamphlet was printed
and produced by John Swain 89-92 Shoe Lane, London EC4. Looking at
the backgrounds and the sketches in it, I would say that it was probably
produced in the 1930s."
