    Morning of August 15, 1911. Togo toured the Brooklyn Naval Shipyards. According to the New York Times, August 3 1911. The Dreadnought North Dakota was in the Brooklyn Navy Yard along with the flagship Connecticut and new battleship Florida. Togo toured the northeast seaboard, visiting naval yards and with mayors in major cities for several days.

    These look like early Peerless automobiles, ca. 1909. The underlined name in handwritten script is just visible on the hubcaps of both vehicles and on a maker's plate on the chassis of the leading car (just behind the acetylene generator on the running board).

    @technogeo: Good eyes!
  • technogeo said:
    Thanks, Rob! They're beautiful cars. Gigantic acetylene headlights, smooth tread tires in front, patterned tread in the rear. The rear tires don't match on the car in the foreground (lic. plate no. 41475). You can seem them in the other photo. www.flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/2163533044/ It's not what you'd expect on an expensive car used to chauffeur dignitaries around New York. I bet Togo noticed.
