Answer:
The bakers used to bake loaves in the mixers and moulders on age-old, time-tested furnaces that were never extinguished.
The baker made his musical entry on the scene with the ‘jhang, jhang’ sound of his specially made bamboo staff. One hand supported the basket on his head and the other banged the bamboo on the ground.
The baker or bread-seller of those days had a peculiar dress known as the kabai. It was a single-piece long frock reaching down to the knees. In his childhood, he saw bakers wearing a shirt and trousers which were shorter than full-length ones and longer than half pants.
The baker usually collected his bills at the end of the month. Monthly accounts used to be recorded on some wall in pencil.
The baker used to have a plump physique with a jackfruit-like physical appearance.
