24079_1 from this assignment appears on page 84 of William D. Jones' "Motor Cars and Serv-Us Stations" without a number. Book caption reads : "Atlas Motors Packard Agency and Chevron products located at Heron and K Streets in Aberdeen, Washington. The owner was requested by Packard to send in some photographs of his dealership. He hired a photographer to do the job, but after seeing the photos he knew he would lose his agency. We then hired us to do the photography. We told him the first thing that he'd better clean up the place and paint the floor, which he did. We then set the 8x10 view camera on a tripod right at dusk when the light intensity on the outside was the same as the artificial light on the inside. He was thrilled with the results and managed to retain his dealership of Packards. February 20, 1948."
