Photo from an expert photographer of the great depression era, Dorothea Lange


shot in 1938, titled "Funeral Cortege, end of an era in a small valley town, Califonia"

I've posted another of Dorothea's photos, and a couple from other great well known photographers like Walker Evans, and Ansel Adams when I can find ones that have cars in them. Here's another from Dorothea https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiB08HW9Nk6rMxjUUHVQnMAPgqWU-DKhSxrA0a4LYpoG_J1v8WPHR5xGnFiPBpaEmVJ5vEbKkR0yl9Glls9KrGPEkVwxR00J6CcZikc1z9jLHsC0L1-bBrgHYOqy8RjZKQUdh1eHEFzUmM/s1600-h/dorothea+lange+from+the+selvedge+yard.jpg
