The Ford F600 Dumptruck, E.B. White, and Brooklin Maine

I'm reading The Letters of E.B. White, the edition that was put together by his granddaughter, Martha White.  E.B. of course lived in North Brooklin, our neck of the woods. In a letter from 1939 that I read today, he mentions owning a truck. Have to track down a photo of that truck. Stay tuned.  Meanwhile I found this one about a mile down the road from the house where E.B. and Katherine White lived.
