Very Kool, thank you for these!

Here is Maxwell Point now, building seems to be gone.

The last photo with the 1914 touring and the gentleman holding the package has Minnesota 1912-13-14 license plate 60605 which was registered to Belvin T. Demevith of Grasston, MN for a Ford.

The old fellow must have been the postman.... or an early day box bandit!

the drygoods and groc. Ford above surely is running on a dead tire with a good load.

Love the young men working on the chassis. Looks like they just got the engine in. They have the correct universal joint positioner and of course a speed wrench. I hope it brought them tons of fun! Must have been a nippy day. Like the guy with the tie. I bet they remembered this day the rest of their lives!

Looks like a "blacksmith's" tong to me - staged photo ? Nice hole in the gas tank !

In the "Winegar" photo, (town is now known as Presque Isle.) the Model T with the trailer belonged to the town photographer. The building in the distance, slightly up on the hillside, was the Lumber Co.'s Superintendent's home. The town was "Dry" but did have some gambling machines in the bars. They have a great historical society, with such things as the original land maps when the U.S. government first owned all the property, and then complete records as it was sold off as the area developed.
