Old Photos
here’s a picture with a familiar face. It’s from my town of Myersville Marylands historical documents. Labeled “unknown people showing off there newfangled automobile”

Re: Old picture
It is a 1195-16, probably a 1916 since the sidelight appear to have black rims.

A mystery from our family photo album. Nobody knows who or where this picture is from.

Re: Old Photos
There has always been something familiar about this one. A memory of one’s mother or grandmother. I picture her as a small town school teacher or librarian. The bicycle adds to the possibility’s.

Re: Old Photos
Another timeless T picture. I’ve often wondered how it all stayed on there. Or maybe it didn’t…

Re: Old Photos
Ive always found this one Peculiar. I guess he finally ran out of inflated spares and had to fix one?

Re: Old Photos
The infamous Gospel car. Definitely a favorite, the face expression on the man in the back seat is priceless. I’ve always wondered the behind the scenes story to this one. I picture “you are my sunshine my only sunshine” as the song they would play.

Re: Old Photos
Found a colorized version. Now you can see what appears to be a policeman and the mailman by the tree. Truly amazing

Re: Old Photos
I have often wondered what their choice of Literature is? The car is interesting. A closed car with a cargo box. Looks like a cut down Tudor but the door looks like it’s off a touring.

Re: Old Photos
On the left is my Uncle, Ben Pierceall. Sitting on the hood of his car is rags, and on the right is his buddy Willmer Jackson. Taken about 1932-33 probably somewhere near Fort Laramie Wyoming. Sorry for the poor quality, it came from a very small print.

Re: Old Photos
As someone with half Chinese roots, I’ve always felt a deep connection to the Great Wall. Growing up, my family would talk about how it’s not just a wall, but a symbol of China’s strength, history, and determination. My grandparents would say that it’s a reminder of how hard people worked to protect the country, often at great personal cost.
It’s kind of surreal to think that people actually lived and worked up there, defending the empire in some pretty harsh conditions. The Wall was a big source of pride for my family, a real symbol of resilience something they passed down through stories about our heritage.
