I wish I had more pictures of the truck. This is the only picture. It was given to me by a relative, and only after looking at it by chance yesterday did I notice what the truck may be.
My grandfather (dad's dad) took the picture, you can see his shadow in the foreground.
My grandfather was from Ionia, Michigan. He came back from WW2 and wound up leaving home, in Ionia, perhaps out of boredom. He actually followed the circus out of town. Some time later he was in Syracuse NY at the state fair, and met my grandmother there. The story goes that she worked there with her father's business, selling potato chips and snacks...they fell in love, etc.
When I looked at this picture yesterday, I realized that the truck in the background is probably their truck.
That is why I was wondering what it is.
Thanks for the help.
