EDITORS COMMENTS
Unloading and loading lorries, Spillers Animal Foods, Gainsborough, Lincolnshire, 1961. This print captures a bustling scene at the Spillers Animal Foods mill in Gainsborough during the early 1960s. In the foreground stands a powerful 1960 Leyland Super Comet tipper truck alongside a late 1950s Bedford SL flat back lorry, both belonging to E&TR Curtis of Mark Mills. The image showcases the vital role these vehicles played in delivering grain to the mill from various locations across Lincolnshire. The trucks are seen being loaded with sacks of grain by hardworking individuals on an open loading bay outside the factory building. This snapshot provides a glimpse into Britain's thriving industrial landscape of that era, where road transport was crucial for ensuring smooth operations within companies like Spillers Animal Foods. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to this piece of history captured by Michael Walters. As we admire this photograph today, we can appreciate not only its historical significance but also marvel at how transportation has evolved over time. It serves as a reminder of the dedication and hard work put forth by those involved in haulage and industry during this period.
