Original 8x10 Maxim factory fire truck photo Ledyard Connecticut 1940s

Description: Up for auction is an original 8x10 black and white photo of a pumper built for Ledyard Connecticut. Town in New London County, Connecticut, United States, located along the Thames River. The town is named after Colonel William Ledyard, a Revolutionary War officer who was killed at the Battle of Groton Heights. The Foxwoods Resort Casino, owned and operated by the Mashantucket Pequot Tribe, is located in the northeastern section of Ledyard, on the reservation owned by the tribe. The Maxim Motor Company (NOT Maxium, as incorrectly referred to) built fire apparatus in Middleborough from 1914-1989 on their own custom chassis as well as Chevrolet, Chevy, GMC, Ford, Dodge, International, REO, Diamond T and others. Known mostly through New England and the Midwest, they had loyal customers in the south and west coast also. These are original Kodak prints that were taken of the apparatus by Maxim photographers before leaving the factory or just prior to delivery to some lucky fire department. Sometimes there are multiple/duplicate images of the same photo, but Maxim made many prints to use for advertising and sales over the years. They would be great for a local historical society or fire museum. These photos are almost 50 years old and getting scarce. Printed on Velox paper. Due to age, there is a slight curl to the photos. However they do lay flat in an album. Photos will be mailed in envelope marked "DO NOT BEND" and rigid insert. Please allow 2-3 days for processing. I do NOT used eBay's Global shipping as there are hidden charges for buyers and sellers. Thank you! I do combine shipping on multiple items. Please send me a message before you check out and I will send an updated invoice. IF you checkout first, I can't refund the whole amount as eBay has already charged me for separate shipping. I lose money.
