    Must be 1913-1914 trying to beat Edward Payson Weston's record for the same walk. In 1909 Weston walked 4,000 miles, from New York, New York to San Francisco, California, in 100 days.

    Another Bain/LOC photo of the Frisco Walkers, this time identified by surnames: Farina, Zanolini and Conti. -----
