This caravan is so retro, it almost looks contemporary, given the popularity of all things vintage. Share you caravan holiday stories here.

This is awesome, we have a 'tear drop' camper by 'Little guy'!

State Library of Queensland Oh, people would kill for this caravan today! I love the enamel pail on the left, and the woman's dress (and nice smile!). And is that an address on the far left of the caravan?!
State Library of Queensland said:
grytlappar It's pretty neat isn't it? The lettering on the far left says '54 Chesney Caravan Coy.' Neil Chesney set up a small caravan factory in Brisbane in the 1950s. At its peak, Lawnton-based Chesney was Australia’s third-largest caravan manufacturer, employing 400 people and making up to a hundred caravans each week.
