Wolverhampton Branch's Souvenir and Publicity Caravan Splendidly Converted from a Mobile Hot Dog Stall Made Its First Appearance Last May When Ken Dodd and the May

Wolverhampton branch's souvenir and publicity caravan, splendidly converted from a mobile hot dog stall, made its first appearance last May when Ken Dodd and the Mayor of Wolverhampton opened the town's Fiesta from its platform.

The branch was given its purchase price, £75, by Wolverhampton 51 club, friends and supporters helped with both material and labour for fitting out, and already the caravan has produced a profit of nearly £300. Altogether during 1975, with a full and diverse programme, ranging from a collection at Wolves v Burnley home match to a pile of pennies and a cheese and wine party at South Staffs Sailing Club, Wolverhampton raised £4,000.
