Lost LA - Helms Bakery Vans...
Down Neighborhood Streets...
1931-1969

7-29-12
 

Every morning, a friendly Helms Bakery truck whistle would be heard slowly coming down your neighborhood street. Families would walk out and hail the driver who would stop and then open the back of the vans and roll out long drawers full of treats...from donuts and cookies to cakes and breads...

 

 

The drawers held amazing amounts of delectable, still warm baked goods...

 

 

 

The other primary Helms delivery vehicles were step-vans which allowed the customers to go inside to view the hours-old goodies...
