    My Grandfather George and his brother Art in California.

    Grandpa told me a couple years ago that he and his brother made the trip to Cali from Essexville (Bay City) Michigan to visit there aunt. It was probably early 30's!!

    Cars are Buicks to my knowledge. Grandpa always had the new model and would sell the old one to his brothers. He started work at General Motors at the age of 15. He lied about his age obviously. He retired from the GM Powertrain Plant. Lived a good life into his mid 90's.

    Dad's older brother Albert standing in front of a 41 Chevrolet Special Deluxe. Not sure if it was his or not. On the back he wrote "Taken a few days before the upperclassman made a man out of me, Nov 42"
