A second look at cars in this installment of Sepia Saturday's "Here to There" theme for October. With thanks to my local history group Auld Earlston for many of the photographs featured here.

From Baker to Butcher - with a rather rickety looking vehicle belonging to Donaldson family in Earlston - no relation!

A wonderful cavalcade of old vehicles. The sports car looks rather jazzy, & a great collection of old trucks. We didn't live on a main thoroughfare, but I used to play (American) football in the street with a neighbor boy. :) Sometimes we had a younger sibling sit on the curb and yell "Car" if they saw one coming.
ReplyDeleteWe used to get paddled for playing in the road. Great old vehicles.
