T Bones: 1926
Circa 1926. Continuing our back-alley tour of Washington, D.C. "Ford Motor Co." An urban junkyard. National Photo Company glass negative. View full size.
Passing by a junkyard
My very humorous uncle, who never stopped with the corny jokes and witticisms, always remarked when we drove past a junkyard, "Wow, that was one heck of an accident," which always brought gales of laughter from the passengers (except he didn't say heck). I in turn used the same comment on my kids every time I drove them past a junkyard, getting the same response. Now I notice that they too are repeating that mantra on their own youngsters. Thanks Uncle Bill for starting this family legacy.
Fore Hire
A location that shall remain hidden in the mists, I'd guess. It's only been 85 years, surely someone will recognize that tree and that little alleyway between the buildings. I know some "T" fans that would love to go back in time and rescue some of those cars.
VintageTVS: Maybe Ollie did the side and Stan did the back?
"Fore Hire"
Yet on the side it appears to be spelled correctly.
