Two 1955 Photographs ~ OH Beavertown Grange Hall Road Machine Shop? COPY

Description: Photos measure 7" L x 5" WSet of 2 B&W photos of what appears to be a (machine shop?) in Beavertown, OH. The business or organization resided on Grange Hall Rd. according to what is written on the back of one of the photos. The date of the photo is 1955. These are copies and not the originals, I believe.was a commercial photographer for many years prior to taking over publication of the locomotive newsmagazine Extra 2200 South. Noted diesel authority and author Jerry Pinkepank founded the magazine as a newsletter among diesel-enthusiast friends in 1961 while in college (the number came from his hometown street address in Lansing, Mich.). Dover and his family took it over in 1968 and built it into a strong magazine that tracked diesel locomotive news and histories; they produced 90 issues, beginning with No. 1 in January 1968, from their home in suburban Sharonville. Dover, who had been in management for Ford Motor Co., insisted on high standards for the magazine, in both reporting and the photographs he and staffers chose to publish (he was assisted on-site mainly by son Dan, and friend Dick Will). Extra 2200 South was known for its extensive diesel data and regularly featured large, detailed, and often-serialized rosters of Class 1 systems. "Extra 22" had a high degree of accuracy, from items generated by its participatory subscribers, and became as much a research tool in perpetuity as a news source.
