Wwii usa vehicle markings

[Lang]

Here is a factory photo of a Dodge being painted. The stencils are sticky backed brown paper and the "joiner bars" across the letters are removed before spraying. This must be one of the last 1/2 ton Dodges because the letters have gone from 2 inch to 3 inch (then again could be a later period rebuild - all the manufacturers had contracts through the war to rebuild vehicles for reissue)


Also a photo of a luxury most units did not have - a professional sign writer!
