104 Cedars Road in September 2008
Delia's gas mask canister

The address on the lid of Delia's gas mask canister is 104 Cedars Road, Coventry[1] which dates it between 1938, when Delia was one year old, and September 1939.[2]

However, the current Cedars Road in Exhill, Coventry only goes up to number 36. 104 Cedars Avenue, instead, corresponds to the photos on 7inch Cinema's article about Delia's gas mask.[1]
