Ladybird Book of Commercial Vehicles
 
1 Attachment(s)
Recently rediscovered this book in my collection and was impressed with the 'pictures'.

Everything is artwork and nicely done. 24 pages with 2 examples per page plus the description. Published in 1964 so you can imagine the types of trucks shown.

Probably inappropriate to upload all here but if you've seen it you'll know it's good stuff.

There was a documentary on BBC4 recently about Ladybird books and how they started etc. It was a very interesting programme, it showed the whole affair to be a mainly Family affair started by a genious with the support of far sighted bosses. Hang on to that book and any others you might come across, they're becomming sought after collectors items.
