Here, a cautious man with suspenders AND belt has just glided in using his enormous 55 gallon hat for transportation and that will also serve as a refuge in case of a sudden rainstorm. He is standing justifiably proudly next to his beautiful and enormous black Packard coupe.

He spent everything to buy this gorgeous car and so he stands where his garage and driveway may one day be and in the background are his trailer and outhouse where he currently lives and does his business.

1936 Packard V 12 Coupe1

your post is somewhat picture-shy Mike......the neighbors had a dog 2 or 3 years back.....used to do his business on the grass strip between the driveways.....not like he wore a funny hat,but go figure

You are welcome, Tony ! I wonder if the people and cars being photographed ever thought that 75 or 80 years later people around the world could instantly see their picture on a device on the desk or in their hand ?
