ROAD TRIP - 1928 STYLE

Postby JPMINITUCSON » Sun Sep 11, 2011 4:13 pm

Patty and I were putting up photos in our new home and came across this picture of my grandmother and her five brothers and sisters in a 1922 Cunningham Touring car.

They had driven from NYC to CA. My great aunt Shirley is behind the wheel as they enter Balboa Park in San Diego. You may ask "Where is all the luggage?" In those days you would ship the bags ahead by Railway Express.

The photo is dated Oct. 11, 1928. How about sharing photos of your family's early motoring adventures?
