In this image, a large number of jeeps have been parked on a baseball field.  The headlights display a V for victory. I searched for other pics or other information about these rallies, but didn’t stumble onto anything.

According to the Library of Congress, this is an Anthracite rally.  The Jeep headlights form V for victory at a night rally for Pennsylvania anthracite miners in Wilkes-Barre on September 29th, 1942. Similar rallies were held in other anthracite area cities from September 28th through October 1st 1942.

1950 Jeepster Knoxville, Tn **SOLD**

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $750

“This is a rough, but very complete Willys Jeepster that was bought brand new by my great uncle. I bought it to resto-mod for my mom, but she has changed her mind and wants me to sell it. It has been hit in the rear. I have removed all of the filler so you can see what you get in the pics. I do have a good, open, TN title for the vehicle. It comes with a locked up engine (F-4 Hurricane) and good overdrive trans and plenty of usable and extra parts. Will consider reasonable offers. I am a car builder and would estimate that you would need about 5K for parts and roughly 300 man hours to get this thing where you’d want to show it. In that shape, it would likely be worth about 9K-11.5K. Will take $750 or best reasonable offer. You must pick up near Coalfield, TN. Might deliver for extra charge”
