Motorist posing with Flanders "20" automobile at stone wall, Mexico, 1910 Under Three Flags expedition
Description:
View of motorist posing with Flanders "20" car at a stone wall in Mexico during the 1910 Under Three Flags expedition. The car, driven by W.H. Line and Paul H. Bruske, traveled from Quebec, Canada and through the United States to Mexico City, Mexico. Label on back: "The muddy condition of the roads of Mexico as Mexico City was approached made it necessary for the Flanders '20' Under Three Flags car to use country lanes quite often. In such cases it was sometimes necessary to tear down the very durable stone walls with which the farmers enclosed their fields."
