Buz unearthed these two jeep related photos in the Harry S. Truman Presidential Library and Museum online collection.
1) Mascot of 4026th Army Signal Photographic Battalion Sits in Jeep
A monkey named “Lady” who was the mascot of the 4026th Army Signal Photographic Battalion, sits in a jeep, somewhere in the Philppines. Donor: John Paxton.
2) Secretary Pace Talks with People in a Jeep
This photo was taken circa 1952. There isn’t a description. It is one of the nicer Military Police Jeeps I’ve seen. The door is particularly unusual.
Hey, there’s that Trunk Monkey!
By slim coincidence, I just saw this photo on the Walck’s Facebook Site minutes ago. Good photo Buz!
I like the locking steering wheel. I guess the monkey can’t be trusted.

Sweet early version of the Club, steering wheel lock.
