Best 75 Tracklayer/Tank - New Pic?
Permalink   

I haven't seen this before. The Best 75 from a different angle.

Fred Crismon says that the side-on view of this vehicle shows troops of the California National Guard, but this pic is from a recruiting brochure showing Camp Zachary Taylor, Kentucky.

And the recruiting brochure (but it is called souvenir folder) in my collcetion says U.S. National Army, Camp Dodge, Des Moines, Iowa.

I guess they made the same (or nearly same) cover for all, they printed the name of the camp on it and the inside is maybe totally different in all of them.

Btw: I also have this picture in my collection. At the side is written "TRACKLAYER C.L.B. 75"

What does C.L.B. stand for?

That is a great picture. The vehicle actually looks quite formidable.

CLB is just the manufacturer's initials - C.L. Best.
