Hi Richard
Could you take and send me some good quality photos of the carrier with the roof! In my last Volume of carriers I am puting in photos of carriers that were converted after the war and put to use in other ways. I thought this one would fit into this. Any idea what it was used for? I will also credit you for the photograph in the book.
If you could take photos at 300 resolution and save as a .tiff or .gif file.

Did you get my reply re where to find the carrier id numbers?

Thanks
Nigel Watson

The overhead roof, all around seating with back rests and open superstructure, plus the geographic location tell me this was a deer hunting camp runabout. The older, less mobile, more hung over or otherwise less able hunters would be driven to their posts while more agile hunters drove the game towards the line. This tactic works well when there are lots of shooters. It is much less common today, with the popularity of tree stands and still hunting.
