Title: Pie deliveries in Mackay Post by: Hewart on February 23, 2007, 11:05:46 AM Found this great collection of old Australian photos from 1959-60.
http://www.flickr.com/photos/globetrotter1937/sets/1783673/ There are plenty of great shots there, but by far the best one is this one of an old FE Panel Van at work delivering Byrnes Hot Pies in Mackay, 1959....

I dig the blinds down the side to let the heat out when the oven is hot. A new twist on the blind van debate. Thanks for digging the pic up and sharing.

I love, Football, Meat pies, Kangaroos and Holden working cars. Gary Title: Re: Pie deliveries in Mackay Post by: customFC on July 15, 2007, 08:59:15 AM Came across the same pic, but with better colour.
