SPIJKSTAAL Ex-Ambulant Shop
Door-to-door sale was very common in the Netherlands. It was common at the countryside as well as in the city. In the village I grew up I remember bread, groceries, the milkman, fresh fish, and even coal was sold at the door.
This Spijkstaal mobile shop type usually was used by the milkman, with dairy supplemented with groceries.
I don't know what happened with this van. The whole area has been demolished and cleaned up there. The shed is gone now, as is this van.
Note the huge bell above the drivers seat.
Supplied with a Ford Taunus TC3 engine.
