As an addendum to yesterday’s Trace Lofts feature, Jim Goldberg was nice enough to send along this image of Bekins Moving & Storage Company from way back when in Seattle. Though they’re no longer located at 629 First Ave and the only horsepower they’re using is from their van, you can still have Bekins move you today. Have a look and give the image a click.

    It costs a little more if you still want to move via horse-drawn carriage. You also have to pick up horseshoe insurance.

    Oh, no, Shipley, that sounds dangerous.
