It's probably just me that thinks the Commer PB looks sort of like a bumble bee. That's how Bumblevans happened.

Nobody has bought a print of this yet, you could be the first!

Yesterday I explained how #Magirus had disappeared as a mainstream truck brand but survives today as manufacturer of fire-fighting vehicles. Today, a 1950s fire engine from the UK that was built on a chassis from the now-defunct truck maker #Commer. Commer was the commercial vehicles arm of the Rootes Group, which made cars under the Hillman, Humber and other brands. Commers were rebadged as Dodge after Chrysler took over #Rootes in 1967.

Here's an old #postcard showing the entrance to the Singleton campus of Swansea University. The card looks like its from the 1960s (I'm judging this by the buildings and the van)

The van looks to me like a Commer, but maybe someone knows better!

Outside of an old car showroom in Llandrindod Wells. All of the brands have now gone from the car industry. Swallowed up by Chrysler initially.
