[edit] Summary

Description

The White Sewing Machine Company, as it was originally called, manufactured the Standard Class "A" Truck for the U.S. Army during World War I. Trucks bearing the White/GMC name were still being manufactured by the General Motors Corporation until 1990. Though not dated, the image is undoubtedly from 1917-1918. The photo was taken by O. M. Holt of Manhattan, KS, and measures 7" x 63".
