Going Once . . . Going Twice . . .

Thanks to Mai for catching this auction notice . . . for John B. Caddell . . . to the highest bidder . . .  with a $25,000 minimum. When I saw the notice, I went through my archives of this tanker delivered  just six days after the day of infamy 1941.    JBC enters the Buttermilk,

All these fotos were taken between five and eight years ago.    JBC in Newtown Creek.

The auctioneer clears his (her??) throat, raises the gavel . . ..
