Scope and content
Ben Scott worked in the "express-drayage-transfer" industry since arriving in Tacoma from Kansas in 1912. In 1923, Scott started his own business--the Square Deal Packing & Moving Co. With expedient service and a fleet of Kenworth trucks, like this one, he soon changed the company's name to Scott's Speedy Service. His son Kenneth operated Scott's Speedy Service until retiring in 1989. G66.2-116; TPL-6265 (TNT 5/15/1925 Rotogravure Section, pg. 10)
