Quiz Photo: Mystery Truck
The Fountainhead Antique Auto Museum has compiled an impressive collection of historic photographs, most of which we've enlarged to ~4' x 7' for the museum walls. Many, like the one shown here, are crammed full of passengers. Clearly these early cars were very popular!

We have been unable to identify the truck (or car) pictured here. Any guesses? The radiator emblem appears to be a triangle, or perhaps the letter "A". The photo was taken on July 4, 1913 as people headed to the local ball park to see the first airplane flight in Alaska. You can click on the image to enlarge it.
