No person, other than a producer selling milk or cream, or both, shall display the word ''dairy'' on any vehicle used by him or his authorized agent in the business of selling milk or cream, unless such person has a license, in full force and effect, issued under section forty-eight A. Whoever in such a town engages in the business of selling milk or cream from any vehicle for household deliveries shall display conspicuously on the outside of each vehicle so used the name and principal place of business of the licensee in Gothic letters not less than one and one-half inches in height.
Whoever in such a town engages in the business of selling milk or cream in a store, booth, stand or market place shall have his license conspicuously posted therein.
