PAUL GEE's PHOTO COLLECTION (Part 1)

jshepguis:
Thanks Deanb for going to trouble of posting these Paul Gee photos they are amazing shots of what lorries do day in and day out, and certainly for me capture a time that i grew up in. Remember the Abbey Hill group transporters, bright yellow vehicles as they had a few that ran out of Teesport when the Datsuns used to come in to the country.

Abbey Hill Group was owned by Roger Bastable who also had a rock band in which he played drums. He was doing well until some whizz kid decided to carry cars on three decks ( and cut the rates in the process!). I believe Roger sold out to one of the big companies of that era but what’s left of the memory cell refuses to drag up more details. :unamused:
