    Description

    This photo is an excellent high quality 8” x 10” full color glossy new photo reproduction of a 1950’s GMC “CANONBALL” DIESEL  Tandem-Axle Tractor w/Sleeper Box.
    ”SAMPLE” will not appear on your photo, it is only on the scanned image.
    DESCRIPTION: This 1950s GMC ‘Canonball’ tandem-axle diesel with sleeper box, is being fitted with a new ‘west coast’ rear-view mirror. With plenty of chrome and a fancy maroon paint job with black s.triping, it must be the pride of this owner-operator
    HISTORY OF THE GMC “CANONBALL” DIESEL: In 1950, GMC introduced their new design COE trucks and tractors, both with gasoline power and Detroit Diesels.  The cabs did not tilt, but had a ‘bubblenose’ hinged hood with partial engine access from the ‘doghouse’ in the cab.  They were often referred to as “Canonballs”.  This particular GMC is a diesel.  The Detroit 4-71 diesels were rated at 133-hp, and the 6-71 diesels were then rated at 200-hp, raised to 237-hp in the 1960s.  I believe this ‘bubblenose’ style stayed in production until 1958 when it was replaced with the DR Series.
    CONDITION: This outstanding color glossy photo is a newly reproduced photo from a vintage photo in my personal lifetime collection.  This photo has been printed on excellent quality HP PREMIUM PLUS GLOSSY PHOTO PAPER Glossy Photo Paper using HP 02 Vivera Inks, producing a professional quality photo that resists fading over 100 years ... the best money can buy.  This full 8x10 photo ia borderless.
    For your information, the description and documentation of this photo will be loosely taped to the back side of this photo. I try to ad some “added value” to my photos by researching each one, adding some history and information that you may not know. If I get something incorrect, please let me know … thanks!
