The basket on my bicycle was metal - I remember that the bottles rattled against the sides no matter how carefully I rode!
I couldn't find a picture of the Badger's truck but here is a picture of the same sort. There was a metal bottle container left by our door and the driver would put the filled bottles in it. My mother would put the empties back as we used up the milk and cream. The bottles rattled in the carrier the same way they had in my bicycle basket.
The Cushman Bakery truck that came to our house looked just like this but the driver certainly wasn't a woman!
Just a couple visuals for those of you who have no frame of reference for something that old!
