What period of time do these scraps represent?

Have just been taking turns of talking about one of our ancestors’ jobs in family history group meetings. Must show them this!

When I was a child in the 1930’s our milkman came round in one of the chariot shaped carts as illustrated in your collection. I can see him now, Mr. Sutton from Sutton’s Dairies with four big churns on his cart. His milk was creamy, none of the skim dried liquid that we drink today.

I especially love the herring girls. The street musician seems to be beating his drum with a beetle!
