Scope and content
In March of 1938 the Red Top Cab Company added this state-of-the-art Packard ambulance to its fleet of vehicles. The new ambulance was considered a "hospital on wheels" that could provide complete care to patients while en route to the hospital. It is parked in front of the Tacoma General Hospital. (T. Times, 3/9/1938, p. 11).
