Bailey's Express Inc. 1920 Baseball T-Shirt

Founded in Middletown, Connecticut in 1920, Bailey's Express got their start hauling loads of 40-quart milk canisters to New Haven. They eventually stopped delivering milk and would later diversify, building up a varied customer list with regional businesses of all sizes from a myriad of industries and providing them with a suite of comprehensive freight forwarding services. Bailey's picked up freight in Connecticut, Massachusetts and Rhode Island and brought it back to their Middletown terminal where goods were repackaged nightly into larger loads and shipped out to their final destination via over-the-road line haul trucking companies. The Middletown terminal operated 20 hours per day and handled 500 loads every night.
