Inscriptions verso (printed in black): No. 2-BRITISH MOTOR LORRIES REQUISITIONED BY THE GOVERNMENT / FOR TRANSPORT SERVICE /
While resting here in the shade, let us ex-/amine these Lorries, as they are called in Eng-/ land, and learn what their duties are. Each / motor truck is loaded with only one kind of / goods, and after leaving the station, all trucks / carrying goods of the same kind group them-/selves together. Thus the meat trucks migth /start out first, followed by bread, clothing, hay, / groceries, grain, gasoline or petrol, as it is / called over here, and mechanical supplies.
