Four black & white photos, 3 1/2 x 5 in. (one is a duplicate), accompanied by an envelope with the following notations on it: "Built in 1921. Had a 1921 Overland motor. Replaced with a 1932 Plymouth. Pictures. [illeg., 1929 (?)]. Big John." The two duplicate snapshots show a vehicle with ornate decorations seemingly being pulled by a tall dummy of a man dressed in a suit, and wearing a large brimmed hat. Three people (2 in driver/conductor uniforms) stand beside it, partly obscuring a display label on the side of the vehicle which reads, in part, "J.A. Dischin." The other two images show the vehicle from the front, without the dummy; and the vehicle and dummy on display, a well dressed man standing beside it.
