Light Industrial Plant
These photos are from about 1960s. The originals are large format 35mm Ektachromes. It looks like an incinerator burning the refuse from another plant. We also have a vintage dump truck dumping stuff into a hopper, possibly coal?
1939 Chevrolet Wrecker
1939 Chevrolet Wrecker owned by Purdy, Shell. Purdy is a small town SW of Seattle Washington on the other side of Puget Sound. Photo was taken sometime in 1970. The Shell station there seems to be long gone, and it is unclear if this truck was still in daily use then although I suspect it likely was.
1923 HCS or at least part of one
I love this photo from September 1970. It is labeled 1923 HCS – Chehalis (a city in Washington state.) It looks like it was likely at a swap meet of some sort, but you wouldn’t be able to tell what they were looking at if it wasn’t for the label on the slide.
1929 Studebaker
Three views of a 1929 Studebaker, taken in Portland Oregon by an unknown photographer. The slides are labeled “Harry Weber’s 1929 Stude”
WWI Photos – 1st Engineers Company D

Kirk Grandparents
Kirk Grandparents – photo by W.C. Gibbon in Scotland, South Dakota.
Also says “My mother’s cousin” – which I’m assuming is the girl in the middle?
Mr and Mrs George Zeller and Children
Today’s found photo is Mr and Mrs. George Zeller, and a posse of unknown children. Labeled on the back “Grandma Kirk’s oldest sister.” So probably related to this photo?
The back of this photo has some awesome information!
As he’s advertised here, W.R. Cross was a prolifi [...]
Found Photo – Helen Hertz
Photo labeled Helen Hertz, taken by photographer N.F. Trade, who also photographed Mr. and Mrs. George Heinrich. We’re going to assume she is somehow related, the photo was in the same collection. Same photographer.
On the back side “My mother’s cousin, and namesake.”
Anna Heinrick
Pictures of Anna Heinrick, or possibly Heinrich since it was in the same group of photos. Looking closer, this may even be the same woman as Mrs. George Heinrich.
Photographer appears to be Gibbon in Scotland South Dakota. Back of photo says Helen Kirk Utter cousin
