Description
Alongside their huge vehicles Scammell developed the little three-wheeler mainly to be used as a tractor for local urban deliveries from railway yards. At one time they were a common sight in our towns and cities and other companies as well as the railways saw the value of the highly manouverable little lorries in narrow streets and premises.
If you thought that recycling was a new idea this scene shows that the trade was very much part of life well over fifty years ago. The little Scammells would collect all kinds of waste paper from all over London to take to Phillip�s yard in Battersea where it would be baled for return to the paper mill and re-processing.
Since painting this from a series of black and white photos I�ve learnt that the livery was red and cream! As a result this painting on a 20�x30� canvas board with correct livery, extra detail and figures is currently for sale. Please e-mail mike@transportartist.co.uk for details.
