Artist's Description

YOU TOO CAN COMMISSION MIKE TO PAINT YOUR VERY OWN ORIGINAL OF YOUR FAVOURITE VEHICLE, A SOUND INVESTMENT FROM WHOM MANY REGARD AS BRITAIN'S LEADING TRANSPORT ARTIST. JUST E-MAIL mike@transportartist.co.uk

Nobody quite knows how many Bedford QLs were made during WW2 but they typified what an Army lorry should look like to most people and many soldiered on right up until the early sixties. I should know for I had the dubious pleasure of driving one for a large slice of my National Service days, but it broke my heart when I had to swap it for a later Bedford RL.

About Mike Jeffries

Mike Jeffries

COMMISSION A PAINTING FROM MIKE. It is with great regret that I have to inform you that Mike sadly passed away November 2020 aged 81, but I, (his partner) will keep his shop here going and am happy to reply to any emails you might send to his own email address at mike@transportartist.co.uk.

He is without a doubt THE lorry...
