It's a Buick motor car. Buick is written on the wheel hubs and the shape of the emblem above the grille is sonsistent with Buick's.

Great shot ..Congrats on Explore!!

Borzoibob - accurate! Galsworthy comments on how often horses were needed to haul early autos out of ditches and the like.

Never mind the dog, what about the unusually situated human (see note)?

beachcomber australia Crikey, cannot believe I didn't spot him! :)

National Library of Ireland on The Commons beachcomber australia He was up there looking for a real Dog

beachcomber australia National Library of Ireland on The Commons I spotted him thanks to your note and what I wonder is how did he manage it? I remember when linesmen of various persuasions put on special steel shoes with a large spiked hook at the toe that went around the pole. They then put a large leather belt around their waists and around the pole and they climbed up one step at a time shifting the belt up with each step as this prevented them from falling backwards. The thing is that the pole in this case look like it is make of concrete and there is no ladder in evidence. Similarly there is no belt in sight to hold him onto the darned thing! Health and safety how are ye?

DannyM8 Niice one Danny, I was just thinking that after all our labours of last week solving puzzles and generally entertaining the denizens of Library Towers and all she gives you is an imitation dog for our troubles. Tsktsk!
