sleeper cab 1917-1950

Hi all!!!
I have a revolutionary find today that dates back to 1916. It's a Thornycroft truck!
The description of the picture says: «It Will be noted that there is another compartment between this and the driver's seat, which serves as a storage place for forage and sleeping quarters foi two men.»
So this is one of the first British trucks with a sleeper cab, but the search continues.

New discovery Commer (1926). I never would have paid attention to this truck for the presence of a sleeper. But the commentary on the picture says I'm wrong: "In the course of the demonstration made for our benefit the tractor-trailer was placed directly against the kerb, the front wheels were locked full over the moment they were free from contact with the kerb and the machine was then turned in a circle 26 ft. in diameter, on either lock. At one point the tractor is at an angle of about 80 degrees to the trailer, and if the cab had not been made large enough for a man to sleep in an even neuter angle could have been obtained."

They deleted my posts here, too. Pity. I was hoping to be heard and understood!
Glory to Ukraine!
