| The original typewritten caption reads: "Model 63 International moving van on highway. This outfit is owned by F.J. Razey, Penn Yan, New York. This is the fourth International owned by Mr. Razey. At the time of taking the photograph (March 25, 1925) the speedometer showed a mileage of 9,100 miles. Up to that time it had been in service about one year. The truck is equipped with a special gear ratio and makes over thirty miles an hour. Mr. Razey also owns a Mack motor truck equipped with stake body. The motor truck shown is chiefly utilized for moving furniture and household goods. Mr. Razey's largest haul is made to New York City. He makes this trip about six times a year, and about 450 miles are traveled the round trip. It takes two days and two nights to make this trip, which is chiefly over hard roads. The van body was built by C.H. Whitefield & Son, Penn Yan, New York. It is painted brown with gold-leaf lettering. Mr. Razey said that the repair costs for his International motor truck have been practically nothing." |
