victorialynn2 Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 Can anyone ID any of the cars? This is McMinnville, Or, where I live. Many of these buildings still stand on 3rd St. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1912Staver Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 (edited) Late teen's early 20's. Car facing camera might be a 1915 mid size Buick. They had a largish, light colored, square name badge like this car has. Also cowl and windshield look about right for a 1915 Buick. All the others look to be no newer than around 1922.

Gunsmoke Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 I see a variety of elements that suggest car in OP is not like Buick shown (rad surround shape, window proportions, ) But I did enlarge photo significantly and I believe can see thru the window of furniture store on near right a calendar on the back wall open to October 1921. Not sure of which day, but betting it is not a Sunday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the way how is your dad doing. Keeping him my prayers. Mike I think we have pretty well pinned the timeframes down despite the lack of date, but I agree it would be nice to know for sure. Dad continues to have a bit of a rebound. No telling how long it will last, but I’m enjoying the visits while he’s doing better. I know he may not be with us much longer. I believe he had an infection, followed by a stroke. They don’t know for sure and they don’t really have a specific cause for him becoming ill, but he did suffer a fall before he became sick a few months ago. It’s an emotional rollercoaster at times, made more difficult since I’m the only family member involved. My new job is going very well and I can work from home, so that is making life much easier than when I was working a much more demanding job 5 hours away from him. Plus I’m helping Seniors have a more secure retirement, and it’s really gratifying to see the relief it brings them. My former realtor and lender clients have been referring a good stream of people for me to share the program information with. I’m glad I moved back to be closer with him. Thank you for asking. Thank you very much for the prayers and support for him! Here’s a pic I took on his birthday, the 11th of August. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 How many people who look at these old unidentified photos go ahead and date and describe all their photos?? I did and scanned them and sent copies to all my surviving cousins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
