1931 Caravan possibly ‘Angela’Reg. no. n/aChassis no. n/aEngine no. n/aThis intriguing 1931 caravan is of unknown make, thought possibly to be an ‘Angela’, which were early caravans from Flamstead near St Albans, and named after the founder's daughter. At this time caravans were very much a novelty, with few cars available that were capable of towing such a load. As the 1930s continued and cars became more powerful caravanning started to take off, but early examples such as this, from the pioneering years of the car-drawn caravan, are a rarity.The caravan is constructed with a wooden frame and oiled fibreboard. Stored under cover for most of its life, it was used as a blanket store in Great Yarmouth during the war. Acquired by previous owners in 2004, it was then refurbished, although pleasingly little structural work was needed. Now presenting well, with a cottage-like charm that only caravans of this era can provide, it retains lovely period features on the inside. It would be a perfect vehicle for shows, perhaps towed by a suitable large classic, and would also provide superb holiday accommodation in a style that the caravans of today can’t hope to emulate.Estimate: £2,000 – 3,000
