This album contains 24 early 20th century black and white images, of various sizes, depicting early automobiles, many of which include family members and pets. There are no captions or annotations. Several scenes depict automobiles in front of a brick garage and others en route on a country road. One photograph appears to be of a car that has been in a collision. There is one prominent image of a large house, possibly a hotel or shingled summer house, with porches, stonework and awnings, and two autos parked in front. Overall, the album reflects the creator's fascination with automobiles.
