Product Details

Lot of 10 vintage 1974 color snapshots, 3.5x5 inches, documenting a California road trip, likely Bay Area and coastal highway. Several photos show a drive across the fog-shrouded Golden Gate Bridge, including views of the red suspension towers, roadway railing, a SLOWER TRAFFIC KEEP RIGHT sign, and the toll plaza with period cars and booths visible. Other images include a roadside overlook of a coastal highway with an orange van and misty harbor view, a hillside bay town with marina, an elevated shot of a residential neighborhood with pyramid-roofed houses near industrial buildings and a harbor, and candid motion shots taken from inside the moving car showing the dashboard, side mirror, and driver's/passenger's arms. All prints carry 1974 photo-lab date stamps on the borders. Most are shot through windshields or from moving vehicles, giving an authentic snapshot road-trip feel; several are soft-focus or motion-blurred as noted, typical of drive-by photography. Condition is generally good with minor fading and some blur/quality loss inherent to the original shots. Associated with the estate of USAF Col. Patricia Jane Harrington. A nice small lot for Golden Gate Bridge, California travel, or vintage car/road-trip photography collectors. Please review photos for condition.
