May 1930 they staged this Boy Scout camping photo for publicity of the Linn "U-Can-Back" trailer H.H. Linn was building in his own firm in West End, Oneonta. The site is under the town sandpile now at the back of the fairgrounds, you can see the spillway (between the lower pond and mud pond) in the background. Ken Cooke is at left, Adolphus Sloan and the Wheeler boys (sons of Ed Wheeler Jr., grandsons of Mrs. H.H. Linn), and George Whitman?
We seem to have few images from western Town of Morris, this is another xeroxed bill head, paired up with the only known image from Allen's sawmill at the outlet of Allen's Pond, upper Dimmock Hollow.

I have always wondered if that Legion hall sign was a Coca Cola sign that once hung in front of Gage's? The wadded up flag at right does not show the star field (48 vs 50), the car headlight (no license plate, to make it harder) I would guess c. 1948.

I thought that was part of the awning not a flag.
