    Grrr, the cart is still, they aren't going anywhere.

    The three are expecting something and waiting for HOPE to come to them.
  • Jonathan Stiles said:
    Here they are on another outing in the same cart: www.flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/2179931268/
  • Jonathan Stiles said:
    I would bet that the photographer was riding on the cart and got them to pull up so that he could get this shot.
  • Jean Knowles said:
    There are four women and one man, who is just barely visible between the two women on the left.

    I have an ongoing project (brand new, of course), started in an effort to help restore the color to these images, but also try to maintain the integrity and charm of the original. Here is the adjusted photo: www.flickr.com/photos/alec_fredericks/2200692261/ And the set: www.flickr.com/photos/alec_fredericks/sets/72157603732346...

    No way to see the images you mention, unfortunately. It says: "The photo you were looking for has been deleted. You might like to ask ACFred about it!" I've been looking at these images over a few days and have had the strange sensation that I'm being a voyeur: I've never felt that before.

    Just a few miles down the road from here. The land still looks much like this, but with more trees. It's odd to see such an old photo that (other than the horse and buggy) could've been taken yesterday on just about any rural road a few miles from here.

    It's a shame there are JPG compression artifacts on these photos. And maybe some unsharp mask artifacts as well? Hey government worker, wake up.

    Check the Persistent URL: hdl.loc.gov/loc.pnp/fsac.1a33874 for the link to the original LOC page for this. From there you can get the 42MB TIFF if you really feel the quality of this isn't up to snuff.

    Thank you so much for engaging the Library of Congress in the new age of photo sharing. It is much appreciated by this citizen and I'm sure by many others. The LOC is one of the few stops in Washington I have yet to visit, and this gives me a window into what I've been missing. I can't wait to see the real thing next time I'm in DC.

    There is no sense of motion in the photo. The cart appears to be stopped. Perhaps for photographic reasons?
