Hi Richard,

Some interesting items here regarding the Victorian built Glider caravans, and also the item you have on the Tasmanian built Gliders. Gets a bit confusing when different manufacturers in different states used the same name doesn't it? It wasn't uncommon in the 30's, 40's and even 50's, and just demonstrates that during the early decades caravan maufacture and sales were very definitely state-based rather than Australia wide.


Regards,

Don Ricardo
