| | SALUTE TO THE LADIES II
At the turn of the 20th century it was common for people to pose on railroad tracks. The automobile was a luxury for the rich in the very early years of the 1900s. Perhaps the railroad held the same mystique representing freedom of movement as the automobile came to represent. Later, people posed next to their new cars, and the practice continues to this day. Above is a photo we simply call "Lady on the Tracks"; U. S. c.1910. As the automobile became more widely available people used it to travel as far as the rural roads would take them as seen in the photo below, "Alone at the Lake"; California c.1919.
