George's New Dodge

Yet another item from the August 28, 1919 News! Our friend, George Sauter, gets a new van to go with his new grocery store.

I think this might be the van in question:

The Gazette went so far as to call it "beautiful."

(By the way, I wonder if the Earl Ramsey mentioned in the item just below the one about George's van has any relation to the elusive Wm. Ramsey?)
