This photo is an excellent high quality 8” x 10” black & white glossy photo new reproduction of a 1940s AUTOCAR DC10064 Tractor & FRUEHAUF Tandem Reefer Trailer Owned by SCHNITZER TRUCKING CO. of Los Angeles.
”SAMPLE” will not appear on your photo, it is only on the scanned image. Laying the “SAMPLE” sheet over the photo for the scan, causes the image to be slightly yellowed. Your photo reproduction will be pure black & white with no yellow cast.
DESCRIPTION: This 1940s post-war DC10064 Autocar with typical west coast long wheelbase is pulling a 35’ Fruehauf Stainless Steel Reefer Trailer with a very early reefer unit mounted on the nose of the trailer. If you have any knowledge of this trucking company, I would appreciate hearing from you.
AUTOCAR DC10064: After 1946 the all steel Autocar ‘DeLuxe Cab’ was introduced, replacing the old wood and steel cab. The all steel Autocar ‘Driver Cab’ was introduced in 1950. Most DC10064 Autocars on the west coast were powered by the Cummins Diesel 672-cid 150-hp HB-600. In an industry first, Series 100 Model Autocars were equipped with a 12-volt electrical system and a 24-volt starting motor with a Bendix drive.
CONDITION: This outstanding black & white glossy photo is a newly reproduced photo from a photo in my personal lifetime collection. This photo has been printed on excellent quality HP PREMIUM PLUS GLOSSY PHOTO PAPER using HP 02 Vivera Inks, producing a professional quality photo that resists fading over 100 years ... the best money can buy. This 8x10 photo has a white border around the photo. For your information, the description and documentation of this photo will be loosely taped to the back side of this photo. I try to ad some “added value” to my photos by researching each one, adding some history and information that you may not know. If I get something incorrect, please let me know … thanks!
