Title
English: Carnation Milk truck, ca. 1921
Description
English: A small evaporated milk company which opened in Kent in 1899 grew to become the nationally known Carnation Company. Canned milk had a small market at first, but was soon accepted by hungry babies and gold-rush miners alike. By 1926, the company had six Seattle-area dairies and six local evaporated milk plants, plus 24 evaporated milk plants elsewhere in the country.

This photo, taken about 1921, shows one of Carnation's trucks.
