If you've ever wandered down Second Street between First and Second Avenues, you might have seen the above truck on the block.
Tom Raimondo, the owner of Crown Salvage (formerly D&D Salvage) at 85 E. Second St., has found a creative way to give new life to his kids' old toys — by decorating the grilles of his trucks with them.
"My son loves Spider-Man, and these two belonged to my girls," he said of his current stuffed animal arrangement.
It might seem a little odd to strap your kids' old toys to an industrial truck, but for Raimondo, it adds a touch of personality to the job and pays tribute to his children.
