You will be surprised how much power and speed that they had. Besides, things were a lot slower back then.

Haute-couture in 1930. He would have laughed at his father's "spats."


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spats_(footwear)


Quote:
From New York in 1936, the Associated Press observed that "in recent years well-dressed men have been discarding spats because they have become the property of the rank and file."[6] A revival of high-top shoes with cloth uppers was forecast to replace them.[6]

The Model A bus ride at Greenfield Village Dearborn, MI is one of the most pleasant rides one can take to see the Village sights.
