1933 puzzle
Found this in a 'station album' from WMFF in Plattsburg NY.
The book doesn't have a copyright date but seems to be from '42, judging by the emphasis on war and the dates in biographies.
This is their mobile unit:
Lo-res picture makes details difficult. It's definitely a true Commercial Sedan with a side-opening tailgate, not just a two-door coach with the windows covered. Looks to me like '33 GM, more Pontiac than Chevy. The radiator appears to be curved, while the Chevy still had a flat radiator. The hubcaps look more like the Pontiac than the Chevy version. I can't find any indication online that Pontiac had a Commercial Sedan. Pontiac later made some Sedan Deliveries, which were more like a station wagon than a 2-dr coach.
Later after looking at more pix, I suspect this is more likely a '34 Chev, not a '33 Pontiac.
