I wish I could be of help; anyway; she looks like she was enjoying herself immensely.

It rather looks like an "Early Living" caravan
known in later years as "Mobile Homes" this model
could be a 1939 Raven Dominion and I hope to post some photos later
hope I am right!!

Hi My first thought was the Dominion but its hard to tell with just the rear view i cannot see a lantern roof ?,And looking through the back window the body looks a bit on the short side for a Dominion ? having said that the Dominion is a 3 door van one is visible to the right of the van and i can see slabs on the ground on the other side may be for the two doors ? ovm Very Happy

I can see where your coming from Alec, but if it was a Burlingham the window would have rounded corners, me thinks the pics right its a Raven Very Happy
