Men posing next to wreck of Clark & Miller Transport freight truck after it crashed off of hillside, July 1948. Attached newspaper clipping from Arrow Lakes News, 18 April 1946. 'K. Livingstone, driver of a C.E. Clark and J.R. Miller truck, escaped with only a bad shaking up Nakusp Thursday when his truck went off the road and overturned near Box Lake, a few miles from Nakusp. Blowout of a front tire caused the accident. The heavily loaded truck landed on the extreme edge of the lake. It was badly damaged.'
