Trotters Independant (sic) Trading Co.

Del Boy's three wheeled van is a 1967 Reliant Regal Supervan III [not a Reliant Robin as shown here], with the registration DHV 938D. Quoted from the 'Only Fools and Horses' Fandom website Coatbridge... is a town in North Lanarkshire, Scotland, about 8 1⁄2 miles (13.5 kilometres) east of Glasgow city centre, set in the central Lowlands. The town, with neighbouring Airdrie, is part of the Greater Glasgow urban area. While the earliest known settlement of the area dates back to the Stone Age era, the founding of the town can be traced to the 12th century, when a Royal Charter was granted to the monks of Newbattle Abbey by King Malcolm IV. Coatbridge, along with its neighbour Airdrie, forms the area known as the Monklands (population approximately 90,000 including outlying settlements). Quoted from Wikipedia

It is best remembered as a manufacturer of buses, fire engines and lorries (trucks) and municipal vehicles such as dustcarts. All vehicles were made to order to the customer's requirements and more strongly built than mass production equivalents. For most of the 20th century Dennis Brothers was Guildford's main employer.

Summerlee Museum of Scottish Industrial Life

The Mighty Compton with its Melotone unit was installed in the Mayfair Cinema, Liverpool, UK for its opening in May 1937 with Sydney Gustard at the console. The pipe chambers were behind the screen stretching the width of the stage which resulted in tremendous power for an organ of only six ranks. The console rose on a lift to take its place in front of a gold festoon curtain and was surrounded by an art-glass illuminated jelly-mould. Quoted from Chas Girdwood . Hear Hello Dolly played on this organ . Hear Blue Moon played on this organ . Western Electric Cinema Projector, circa 1947
