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....



And the close up... gotta love the blinds, the oven in the back and that great sign on the roof...



Cheers

Ask me about microwaving cats for fun or profit.

Cool pic Les.
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.

Yep, It's a beauty Les, I think it was set up that way to sell pies & drinks out of the back at workplaces & or events.

I love, Football, Meat pies, Kangaroos and Holden working cars.

I only just noticed the irony of the name of the proprietor - Nothing like a REALLY hot pie
