The truck was newer but coal was delivered to my fathers house in the early 40s when I was a little kid just like this box. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not heavy stuff but perhaps a 4 x 6 or 4 x 8 piece of ply wood etc. that would be tied down. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd assumed it was something like that beings it was used for construction, but wasn't sure if I'd missed something in my research of DB/GB trucks. Thanks for confirmation that I wasn't loosing it.

30DodgePanel Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 (edited) From my personal collection of the DA-124. Was also made with a Plymouth 4 cylinder or referred to as the U-124 model, they were produced from fall of 1929 to early summer of 1931. St Louis - Note the 1930 Missouri truck license plate. Would love to purchase the plate 37-450 for nostalgia purposes if anyone has it . From a Ross Roy sales book.

Walt G Posted January 5, 2023 Author Share Posted January 5, 2023 OK everyone more mumbling about observation from Dave's ( 30DodgePaneal) wonderful contributions! WOW. Note in the photo of the 3 panel trucks - the one with the two Plymouth based examples for Willard batteries. Go beyond the great trucks look at and study the buildings masonry accents, windows, style, construction, signage, cast brackets to hold signs etc. NO PLASTIC real solid, heavy stuff . Signs on the windows, trucks etc were all hand lettered, no computer generated stick on stuff!!!!! Artists did that. with paint that had to dry . This is what period images tell you and open a staircase to walk down into the past. Remember you saw it here on the AACA forums!

You and me both! Thanks for asking, I wasn't sure anyone would want to discuss it. My guess was maybe a homemade trailer with supports to assist in loading the car onto the bed.

30DodgePanel Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Dr. Robert H. Goddard tows his rocket to the launching tower behind a Model A Ford truck, 15 miles northwest of Roswell, New Mexico. 1930- 1932. Dr. Goddard has been recognized as the "Father of American Rocketry" and as one of three pioneers in the theoretical exploration of space. Robert Hutchings Goddard was born in Worcester, Massachusetts, on October 15, 1882. He was a theoretical scientist as well as a practical engineer. His dream was the conquest of the upper atmosphere and ultimately space through the use of rocket propulsion. Dr. Goddard, who died in 1945, was probably as responsible for the dawning of the Space Age as the Wright Brothers were for the begining of the Air Age. Yet his work attracted little serious attention during his lifetime. When the United States began to prepare for the conquest of space in the 1950's, American rocket scientists began to recognize the debt owed to the New England professor. They discovered that it was virtually impossible to construct a rocket or launch a satellite without acknowledging the work of Dr. Goddard. This great legacy was covered by more than 200 patents, many of which were issued after his death. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
