Scope and content
Winthrop Motor Co.'s vice-president George W. Miller prepares to climb aboard an airplane on September 17, 1927, for a business trip to Portland. When a Reo customer required immediate delivery of a Reo Speed Wagon which was not in stock at Winthrop Motors, Mr. Miller decided to travel to Portland to pick up the vehicle and then drive it back to Tacoma. It would have taken at least 10 days to get a Speed Wagon from the factory. Mr. Miller is well dressed in a business suit, wide-brimmed hat and carrying an overcoat. He resided at 914 N. "M" St. in Tacoma with wife Eunice. His daughter, born in 1931, became future Hollywood actress, Marjie Millar (formerly Marjie Joy Miller). G12.1-084 (Tacoma Sunday Ledger, 9-25-27, G-3)
