On a sunny April day in 1966, an unidentified cowpoke, arms akimbo, was ready for action on the cement driveway in front of one of the new houses in the Heritage West housing development. Wearing a large (toy) pistol, he is standing near a sign indicating septic tanks were prohibited in the Heritage West neighborhood of homes. Presumably modern sewer lines were being installed. This little boy was used in a Heritage West ad, sans background, in the May 6, 1966, News Tribune. Heritage West was a development of new homes ten minutes northeast of Tacoma that was developed by Evergreen Builders of Tacoma. It was off South 320th just west of The Commons at Federal Way (formerly Seatac Mall). Photograph ordered by Evergreen State Builders. (TNT Ad May 5, 1966, p. 22)
