Description:
A photographic slide in a small cardboard Kodachrome frame (off white with yellow and red corner trim). The frame is labeled "July 4 1959" in handwriting. The image shows a semi—aerial view of the upper portion of Fourth Street, looking downward directly onto the street. The hedges are at left, placing the camera's view as southward. A tiny car is in the center of the image, with a woman in a plaid skirt and dark sunhat behind the wheel. A yellow sign is attached to the rear, with text reading "Worn Out. Tradin' for a Volkswagen or a Rambler. PT Automotive". A child in a blue sweater is walking alongside the car, toward the left of the image. The number "19" is printed in red ink on the frame at the upper left.
