Each day we bring you one stunning little glimpse of history in the form of a historical photograph. Enjoy!
About this site:
I have been an avid collector of old photographs and documents for over 30 years. The photographs on this site are derived from material I have collected over the years. Some came from old family albums, some from material I bought at flea markets over the years, and some from government archives of public domain images, including the US Library of Congress, and the National Archives. We appreciate you visiting this blog, and hope you find it interesting.

I'm going to go with William Howard Taft. I think I see a small presidential seal on the side of the car.
ReplyDeleteTaft and his wife Helen; ironically it would take two more Administrations before a President would ride in an auto to his Inauguratation (Wilson).
ReplyDeleteI'd go with Grover Cleveland

Wm. H. Taft and wife.....
ReplyDeleteJust love that mustache and smile!!
Yes, it is in fact President Taft and his wife. I had not noticed the presidential seal on the car door. Once again, I have failed to stump you all. I will try and make it harder next week
ReplyDeleteI would like to see the driver change that tire, looks like he would have to un-mount the old and mount the new on the side of the road. I don't think they had AAA...
ReplyDeleteYeah, I've been keeping up with the "Who is this?" and your not making it difficult enough. I know your not required to, but can you actually stump the internet?
ReplyDeleteAnon,
ReplyDeleteIt is an interesting question you ask . . . can I stump the internet. Certainly I could. For Example, I put up a picture of my great uncle, who worked at a gas station in the 1930's. No one would know him and no would have a way of knowing him. By putting up a totally unknown person, I could make it pretty much impossible. The challenge I am having is to put one up in which it is POSSIBLE for people to figure out, but one that they DONT figure out. So far, I have put up ones that have been possible to figure out, and so far, everyone has been figured out. I will continue to try and find one that is possible, but yet stumps everyone.
