These pictures were taken by professional photographers in an era when the world was just recovering from the deprivations arising from the war. It was during the dawn of a new era where everyone was full of hope for a better life. And what a great pity truck manufacturers don't have the budget and the inclination to photograph every new truck they build today! By the way, the premises of Mack Trucks (Canada) Ltd. at 1350 The Queensway, Toronto, (where I worked) was the site of the Mack Trucks Canada assembly plant until they built the Oakville, Ontario plant (opposite Ford and now also defunct) in the late 1960s (I THINK).
A Note of Thanks to Martin from Hank:
These photos would not be here if it weren't for the foresight of Martin. All of these photos were destined for the trash when Martin found them and saved them for others to see. Thanks Martin!!!

Mack Model LMSWL for Fruit Growers Supply Company from Westwood, California.
FGS, Westwood Operation - New Mack ----
With the premature shut down of railroad logging during 1949, and the decision to abandon the Camp Harvey railroad, Fruit Growers Supply - Westwood purchased 8 new logging trucks and two loaders early in 1950. The truck purchase was split between Mack and Peterbuilt, both brands delivered with 275 H. P. Cummins diesel engines. These off-highway trucks with log dolleys cost the "Supply" company about $23,222 per unit and had a workable capacity of about 15,000 ft per load.
Pictured below is one of the company's newly purchased Mack trucks, No. 159, with just under 29,000 ft of prime pine logs. This truck load of logs on its way to the mill at Westwood from the Lights Creek tract, where some 63 million feet of timber was logged during 1950.
