This one in Flagstaff. Not a script bed.

 

 

Here is another old truck (¾ ton IH) used for flowers. It has been in front of a local nursery for years.

 

This one is still working, I took this picture in Louisville, Ohio on Saturday.

 

While in my travels the other day, saw a 1948-50 F5 or F6 hauling hay outside Fort Smith, AR. Now that I know where its area is, next time I'll have the camera ready (didn't this time)

 

'48 F6.... With a 390🤘🏼

 

Took a ride on the back roads of KY out of Frankford north on RT 355. This lookedlike it was a steam engine setup for the mill. The "WHITE" looked pretty complete down to the hub caps.

 

What's the story on that art work?? Are they giant posters, or paintings on wood, could you tell ?? The condition looks amazing.

 

All painted on wood. They are really in good shape. Drive was "Posted no trespassing" so I didn't think it wise to go up the driveway. Looked like an old equipment shed. I just liked the monkey face in the first scene

 

That looks like a tobacco shed. The paintings describe the order of the preparation of the tobacco to get it to the market. On the other side of the shed it might show how it was harvested in the field.

 

Notice in the first picture the tobacco is on strips of lath and the leaves were taken off and you can see the lathes laying on the loading dock.

 

It very easily could be a tobacco shed. Most of them near us are much taller that's the only reason I thought an equipment barn or maybe an hay barn. Tobacco works. The third panel has a Chesterfield ad in it also

 

2nd panel looks to be a "fridge"in the background.

Very cool thanks for sharing!

 

This video is a little OT as it isn't '48-'56 but I think that you will like it anyhow. Definitely working trucks:

 

That is one serious effin log !! My Grandpa ( the one I bought the stock truck from ) had a 1918 Case steamer he used to saw logs with . Story was it was sold for scrap for the war effort . Turns out it was not true & in '91 I finally had the chance to see it run . A man named Tim Sollman owned it & restored it . It was quit emotional for me as all I had was pics & stories about it .You can see it by searching Moon Lake threshing bee .It still brings tears to my eyes just talking about it .
