| Description |
English: In April of 1919, two postal carriers, S.P. Hammerbeck and Charlie Matters (order not known), and their trusty dog posed with their shining black delivery vehicles on the brick areas outside the Federal Building at 1102 A Street, in downtown Tacoma. The U.S. Post Office's Main branch was located there. Both Mr. Hammerbeck and Mr. Matters delivered parcel post packages in their 1/2-ton Dodge "business cars." They praised the low costs of maintaining this make of vehicle. The Dodge Brothers did not believe in change for change's sake, and their delivery trucks, called commercial cars, remained basically unchanged from 1917 to 1922. TPL-936; G42.1-120 (TDL 4-13-19, C-11) |
