United States -- Washington -- Garfield county -- Pomeroy |
| Description | This wagon was purchased by Elmor (Skinny) Trescott in 1913 to use on his mail route in Pomeroy, WA. The wheels were replaced with skis in the winter. It was in use on a regular basis until 1917, after which it was only used during the winter months when motorized vehicles struggled on unplowed roads. A special feature of this wagon was its small wood stove. Restored by Bill Anderson (Pomeroy, WA). |
