Spooky.
A pair of '59s: Cadillac Sedan DeVille and a Shasta. 1966 Oldsmobile Ninety Eight with matching Shasta. Crescent moon.
Enjoy!

I was debating which car should get the hitch. A friend told me the Cadillac was not the kind of car people would have used for camping back in the day. He's probably right.

Hi Friends,
I like pictures taken during the golden hour a lot. I like them.even more when they involve vintage trailers.😊
Cheers,
Rod

I just realized this thread is probably supposed to be for vintage photos, not modern photos of vintage campers. Oops. Luckily, I have a couple of those, too. The Shasta, back in the '60s: And the documents and envelope that came with it. |

This thread is for ANY vintage trailer photos! Thanks so much for sharing and please continue.
The photo of the brochures is about the limit of what trailer manufactures distributed with the trailers... Lots of brake and axle info, stove brochure, fridge brochure, etc. Nothing on how the trailer actually "works".

Wow, amazing to have the brochures and old photo's.
Might want to consider scanning the brochures and posting on the site somewhere.
Just a thought, didn't I'd say it was a good one...

What the heck. Let's do some more. This canvas awning (original poles) was sewn by the mother in the previous owner family. Anybody know what kind of awning the Shasta would have come with when it was new? Maybe this same type of canvas?

Just realized some of these photos might be repeats from my introduction/restoration thread. Sorry about that.
This one might be, too. From 1966 or '67, I'm told. |

Nice... The awning you have is pretty much what they were coming with originally. Just a fabric "Rope Awning"....
