Attached is an image, c.a. 1950, of Paul Callanan and his brother in law, Dr Julian Doherty at their cottage on Nauset Heights, East Orleans, MA. Obviously very pleased with their catch of striped bass, behind them is their faithful Jeep CJ. Jeeps were the vehicle of choice to navigate the beaches of outer Cape Cod. As a young boy, the most exciting events of the summer were the Jeep rides, whether just to the beach or an extended trip to Chatham to dig clams. I now own a 1967 CJ5 which evokes instant memories of those early days on Cape Cod. The sound, the smells and the various rattles are so familiar.

Would anyone have a digital photo you could share of an early mountain jeep road scene shortly after WWII with a military surplus jeep, and early Jeep Willys or some other early off-road vehicles?
I’m the graphic designer for 15 wayside kiosks for the Collegiate Peaks Scenic Byway in Chaffee County, Colorado. In a historic panel about mountain recreation, we mention the beginning of 4-wheeling and would like a photo from the early days. Unfortunately we haven’t been able to find an appropriate photo of this in any of the usual photo archives. Would any of you have anything we could use?
Thank you, Kathy McCoy
