History Photos taken before WW2 - history in black and white

1937...

 

This is a 1913 model 78, a 20hp roadster. Only one survives to the present. A great car and photo. Thank you for sharing!

Being a lifelong camper (and father/grandfather
of campers), I have to say, THIS is a charming
early family camp pic! Thanks, SunRoofCord!!!

 

T-6, COOL pic, man! But I'm a little confused. Is this
a super-early case of a youngster sneaking the keys
out of dad & mom's dresser drawer, followed by
dreadful results?

In all seriousness, though, car insurance couldn't have
been fab back then, right? Would this have been a financial
catastrophe for some family?

Hmmm??? There's a possibly "automotive" connection
here too. The woman in the pic may be the grandmother
or great-grandmother even, of the "Rabbit Lady" in
Michael Moore's flick, "Rodger and Me!!!
