Charles shared these photos from the 70th anniversary of the Liberation of Antwerp (September 4, 1944). Obviously not all these are WWII jeeps, but it’s all for fun and remembrance 🙂

Apparently this photo of four soldiers and “Lady Blanch” was taken in England.

What i thought was interesting in this photo was the windshield marking. I’ve not encountered a white oval with writing like that.

Cool letterhead.
“This is an Original Color Patriotic Letterhead dated 1942 Featuring a U S Army Jeep chasing Hitler, Mussolini and Tito Right off the map. Great item printed by “Copyright 1942 By Porto Server Chicago”. The 7” X 10 1/2” letter sheet is in excellent condition. This is one of a collection of WWII Patriotic Stationary items we have on auction at this time.”
How about this poster!
“13 x 18 inch original poster from the US Army Safety Program, printed in 1948. Folded in half as issued. VG condition. Shows a graphic jeep wreck.”
Yikes! Given the previous post, this photo seemed appropriate. No date on this photo, but the license plate would suggest this was post military.
“”Jeep that cracked up here” typed on back. Approximate Size: 3 5/8 x 2 3/8 in. [90 x 60 mm]”
No year for the negative of this jeep marked 20112942. The men seem to be enjoying themselves.
“For auction negative with view of soldier in a jeep, the auction is for negative not an actual photo, some wear marks on negative. Negative measures about 2 3/4 inches x 4 1/2 inches. Shipping is $2.32 to the USA or $6.55 for international shipping.”
Probably could have used a jeep train to ferry all the refugees.
