 | Sundiszno (32) 07/20/2005 | Much like the milkman, the bread man (we never referred to him as the baker) would have a standard order he delivered periodically, but you could catch him or leave a note for more or less bread, or different kinds of loaves or buns. We had two great Italian bakeries in town - if I recall, we usaed to get our bread delivered by Piccirillo's, but used to go out to buy bread at Pacelli's. It was always so tasty, and when you went to the bakery itself you could almost taste the bread from the smell.

 | Randyman (109) 07/19/2005 | In Southern California, It was the yellow Helm's Bakery truck, delivering fresh bread and other bakery items from the local Helm's Bakery. Their Cream Puffs and Glazed doughnuts were the best I've ever had. Every once in a while, at a car show, or just on the streets, I'll see one of their old Panel Trucks fixed up for show. I saw one at a car show last year, that was restored completely as a bakery truck. It was classic.
