Old Photo - See the Ford's Snarled in Traffic After a New England Snow Storm
The press photo seen above taken in an unknown Massachusetts city, shows a bit of a traffic problem after a reported thirteen-inch snowstorm. In the photo can be seen a wide variety of vehicles, the oldest of which appears to be a Model “T ” truck on the right and on the left is a much more modern mid-thirties GM sedan. Tell us what you see here in the way of Fords in the scene.
You can also see two excellent winter 1930s plowing films (sample photos below), one of an Oshkosh truck (left below) armed with both vee and wing plows in Barnum, Minnesota on the left plowing 4-6 foot snow. And the other film shows a Walter Snow Fighter (right below) working very hard on the Tug Hill Plateau in upstate New York, where record snowfalls occur yearly and the snow was so deep it turned into a spectator sport. Both can be seen along with many more interesting winter time car photos on The Old Motor.
