Buz found this photo from Chapel Hill, North Carolina. He writes, “This is Poe Motor Company a Plymouth/Desoto dealer, the building still stands, maybe one day I can get a photo of my CJ3A in front of it, I believe the building is now a restaurant.” The Poe Motor Company name is painted across the windshield.
1943 Tennessee Army Maneuvers Pillow on eBay
The second pillow case with a jeep in two days. These clearly weren’t one-offs. There must have been a basic pattern or some kind of history behind them.
“Up for bid is a Tennessee Army Maneuvers 1943 To My Wife Poem Pillow Cover Tank Jeep Cannon Eagle etc. Images and writing on the cover are raised felt like material. No stains, color variation in the photos is due to the flash hitting the folds and wrinkles. In very good condition for its age.”

The Taylors of Walnut Hill (from 1948)
The Taylors of Walnut Hill, Kansas, were featured in the March 1948 issue of Country Gentleman. They owned the Walnut Hill Hereford Ranch. I googled the ranch, but it no longer appears active under that name.
According to the article, “Tom Taylor bought his his CJ-2A jeep with some misgivings, but the jeep is probably his favorite piece of equipment. He now declares he wouldn’t know how to farm without it.”
The article also notes, “The most original item is their repair-trailer, a wheeled frame of six-inch tubular steel which serves as compressed-air tank, carrying its own power, equipped for spray-painting, lubrication-pressure, welding and acetylene-torch cutting.”
