The Biscuit Truck – Le Type H à biscuits

photo_108_biscuit_truck_damien
At the market on Saturday in Blois, we were delighted to see that Damien, our favourite biscuit maker – his Sablés des Grouets are very moorish – has a new biscuit tin. And not just any tin.The Citroën H Van, Type H, H-Type or HY is a light truck (or delivery van) produced by Citroën between 1948 and 1981. It was developed as a simple front wheel driven van after World War II. A total of 473,289 were produced in 34 years in factories in France and Belgium.
Au marché dimanche nous étions ravis de voir que Damien, notre biscuitier préféré – ses sablés des Grouets sont vraiment délicieux – a trouvé une nouvelle boîte. Et pas n’importe laquelle. Le Citroën Type H est un fourgon automobile produit entre 1948 et 1981 à 473 289 exemplaires en France et en Belgique. Il a été développé comme fourgon à traction avant après la deuxième guerre mondiale.

I don’t know but I’ll ask Damien where he buys his from. Maybe they’ll be able to suggest somewhere.
