Prefer unobstructed pictures of the cars without people.

I like them, Dick. Most of these give us a concept of the time that goes beyond dating the year of the car. Hair and clothing styles help, but so do little things like landscaping, road conditions, and even what was considered beautiful (in cars as well as women!)
Your second picture shows us an action that is never seen today: Can we really figure out what the pretty girl is doing? Sure, she's changing a tire, but look what is involved. A popular (?) commercial on today's television finds humor in the teenager trying to figure out what a lug wrench is. So can anyone remember the terms for what's involved the picture #2?

I like them too. Agree on the social history angle

I also agree with David, but like these pictures of old cars either way - with or without people!

Yes, like them

Love old cars in context.
Yes, by all means continue to include people and situations with your old automobiles. We all have seen pristine old cars but not often the people associated with them.

Love pictures like these
These pictures give you a feel for what
these times were really like.

Love these images and all types of car pictures ! A mixture of cars alone, cars together, cars with people or pretty gals and cars in context of their surroundings are all cool and fun to look at.
