Date: 1919

Early motorists had to contend with dirt roads which could be notoriously challenging to navigate, such as that in Coboconk. Eventually this route would be paved as part of Highway 35 North. Barely visible in the distance is an automobile sporting white rubber tires, which were the norm until about 1919.
