Description:
A: Envelope to hold negatives. Labeled: "11/25/55 B.P.R.".
B: Negative in horizontal view an exterior truck lot, with a warehouse—type structure in the background. In the foreground, the left side of a large truck is shown. The truck is a four wheeler, with a cab in front and a trailer with a rounded top on the same chassis. The cab has what looks like a snow plow attached to it.
C: Negative in horizontal view of the same truck, the camera having shifted to the left, capturing the front—left side of the truck. The attached snow plow has three rows of circulating blades inside of it. The warehouse is in the left background, and a line of trees is at right.
D: Negative in horizontal view of an interior workshop, presumably inside the warehouse structure, judging by the windows. There are two trucks on either side of the image's periphery, and part of a truck's cab or trailer elevated in the center of the image. Around the center there is much detritus composed of machinery, furniture, and other various parts.
E: Negative in horizontal view of the same interior, in a wider shot, the camera shifted right. Beside the truck to the left, there is the carcass of a car viewed from the rear. Beyond that, there is a wide garage door through which other vehicles are visible.
F: Negative in horizontal view of the interior of a truck cab, captured through the open right door, showing the steering wheel, pedals, consol, various meters, seat cushions, and what seems to be an interior gas tank.

H: Negative in horizontal view, identical to negative "E."
I: Negative in horizontal view, identical to negative "D."
