I, especially, found your collection of old movie theatre photos interesting. Just five years ago, I sold the longest continous operating movie theatre in the USA. It opened in 1907 and is still operating. I bought it from the daughter-in-law of the founder in 1978. I have some old photos, but I don't think that any of them have cars in them. I'll have to check my collection. MIKE

Re: Old Ford Pictures - social group
Thanks, I was just consolidating them here for the Ford folks. Credit & thanks goes to all who have posted them on the web from their personal collections. I found most of the movie pics on a local (michigan) website and remember some of the drive-ins from my earliers days. Only posted those with cars and particularly Fords.
Many of the above photos are of Pontiac Mi, where I was born - but those pics are waaay before I was around. But my dad was also born there in 1914. Some of those old buildings remain but Pontiac is a shell of its former self. Most auto manufacturing is gone from there. There's tons of great old photos out there but it takes a lot of time to find and sort them out. Good thing it's been slow at work lately  , I don't expect it to stay that way for long.ron |

I do remember one photo has a 1932 Ford parked out front and another of a 4th of July parade. These photos are 800 miles away, right now. so I will post them later. There might be others. MIKE

NEW FORD DEALER ? .................................
This FORD porcelain sign is so new, that it has not been hung up yet. There are a few FORD flyers taped to the inside of the windows. This is probably in Oregon, as the m/c license plate is Oregon and dated 1917. The motorcycle is a HARLEY-DAVIDSON. MIKE

I especially like that combination grocery store-gas station photo. It seems to tell the story of just another typical day at the store. MIKE

Re: Old Ford Pictures - social group
Hoping everyone had a great 4th of July weekend! Pretty warm here in Michigan but sunny and nice for not working - or playing - too hard.
Thought I'd post some more photos today that I found on the 'net - thanks to all who've taken time to research and find them.  |
