Wow ~ Everybody pile into the car and let’s go sight seeing! What fun to get all dressed up and go for a ride! We have lots of photos of people having fun on outings, and you can find them all sorts of ways. Search for “wagon,” “people smile,” or “sightseers.” Remember too, that people might look insignificant in the thumbnail, but with our zoom feature and quality resolution, you can find amazing vignettes within larger images.
To see more fun photos of cars and other conveyances from the past, explore the gallery below.
“Wow Photo Wednesday” celebrates photographs in the Denver Public Library’s Digital Collections that have “The Wow Factor” and that highlight the myriad delightful nuggets in our database.
