    My Grandmother remembered seeing the Duke of Windsor in Coonamble around this time, where she lived as a small girl with her family who ran one of the Pubs there. Nana said the Duke of Windsor was travelling to his property out that way, Wingadee.

    I don't really care about his personal life, but I remember him as being a really great PR man. He made the Empire look good where ever he went. And he was always seen in a really nice car.

    Sweet ride!

    I believe this is actually not near Creede, CO at all. A horizon this flat can only be seen near the front range in Colorado. I would guess that this is taken on US-40 climbing Mount Vernon Canyon west of Golden, CO, facing west. The hill in the center just below the horizon would then be Green Mountain south of Golden. These days, I-70 takes up most of this valley, as you can see in this shot facing uphill: www.dot.state.co.us/50anniversary/images/I70Photos/I70Mou...

    The guy in the boater hat must be Secret Service, or the equivalent -- definitely challenging the photographer.
  • technogeo said:
    Both cars have the same licence plate number. Is it possible that all the cars of Taft's fleet had the same plates?
  • aware health said:
    I think I found the answer. (Is there anything that can't be Googled?) By the auto registration laws of those days, dealers could apply for one registration for their entire fleet and then get duplicate plates of the registration number for all their cars. (I tried to make a tinyurl of the "McKinney's Consolidated Laws" Googlebook website but Flickr won't post it.) I'd guess that Taft took the train to NYC, and a local dealer supplied the cars for his motorcade. Can you tell the model? There's a logo on the lead car's grille, but it's hidden by the license plate.
