Robert (Bobby) Woolford Carrier

it is a 1928 Season (August 1927 – August 1928) Morris 10 cwt Light Van. Features including the oval widows in the side panels, the driver’s door capping indicating winding windows and the side panels being stepped in above the rear wings are characteristic of the Light Van of this Season. Later models of the vans were fitted with an improved radiator design to assist with cooling (the radiator of the van in the image is the “snubnose” type taken from the Morris Cowley design and was found to be wanting for the commercial van application. The “RX” registration, which ran from May 1927 to March 1932, is also consistent with the vehicle being manufactured in the 1927 – 1928 timeframe. So we can say with confidence that the photo was taken sometime after August 1927.
