There is a guy who brings several trucks to the Iowa80 Trucker's Jamboree each year. One of his antique rigs pulls a stock trailer outfitted as a museum. Inside is all kinds of truck memorabilia and old photos.
One of the photos is of a very large house being moved on a very large truck. It looks like the whole rig is trying to crest a slight incline with great difficulty. Pulling this whole affair with a long log chain is one single Power Wagon. Judging by the number of workers looking on, under, and over everything, it was quite an ordeal and the Power Wagon must have saved the day. There is the name of the moving company on the big rig, but no name on the Power Wagon. It must have been a local farmer that had to come to the rescue.
He has promissed me a copy of the photo. It is behind glass and not easy to access.
