Mystery motorist
Snow-covered streets were no problem for this enthusiastic motorist. With chains on his rear tires and a bearskin rug on his lap, he was ready to motor in this photo from the Observer-Reporter’s photo archive.
We can’t figure out whether the young man was just trying to impress the three women standing on the right, or whether he was waiting to give them a ride. Under magnification, the young ladies appear a little wary, however.
We’re hoping our readers can help us identify where and when this photo was taken and who the driver might have been. The manufacturer and model of the automobile would be helpful, too.
If you have a clue, email Park Burroughs, retired executive editor, at pburroughs@observer-reporter.com, or call and leave a message for him with your telephone number at 724-222-2200, extension 2400.
With a little luck and some help from our readers, we’ll solve this week’s Mystery Photo and publish the results in next Monday’s newspaper.
