Colorized photo from 1940
Original title: Stage in front of post office
Location: Pie Town, NM
Why the bright crazy colors? I found a brochure that had a retro bus with these same colors. I think at one time they had a real wagon on this trail that had those colors. So I made the car match.
Standards as to what your allowed to put on a car didn't exist (though I don't think they exist now either). In this case he has all of the towns mail, 2 milk cans, all the laundry for a small school, and in the back, all the luggage for the entire town, and a family inside.
