And now for something completely different:
Mack Buses from the early fifties:

Note the "Mack C" roundel on the back of the bus. and
the handwriting on the builder's photos looks like that on the fire apparatus builder's photos that Frank B posts.

Phil,
When I was in the Army back in the 1950's, yup that long ago, they had Mack buses! I actually drove one.
I wish I had a camera back them. <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/banghead.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='
