That is Peter Allmaiers farm on the corner of Schoolhouse Road and Rick Road in Alexandria, NJ. Now a housing development. In fact, one road in the development is named Melita Road after his niece who came over from Austria to help him on the farm when his wife died in the mid 50s. I loved that farm, spent many days and almost every Thanksgiving there. I remember when he bought that truck in the photo. He died in the early 70s and the farm was sold for development in the late 80s.
