Original 4 x 6 inch vintage black-and-white photograph, dated June 28, 1939, showing a group posed beside a large automobile at Glen Cove on Pikes Peak, Colorado. The dated sign in the foreground reads “AT GLEN COVE ON PIKES PEAK ALT. 11,425 FT. No 5 JUNE 28 1939.” The building behind the group is marked “Pikes Peak Ski Club.”
The reverse has handwritten identification and a note concerning the automobile. The writing appears to read:
- “... first drive in this machine – Good luck, Fred.”
- John Hill Jr. (Pat)
- Lucerne / Molly
- Wm Hill (Mike)
- Mrs John Hill
- John L. Hill Sr.
The photograph shows six people posed with the automobile, including a uniformed man at left and a young girl at right. A particularly nice pre-WWII Colorado travel photograph with the location, elevation, exact date, automobile, Pikes Peak Ski Club building, and several members of the Hill family documented directly on the photograph and its reverse.
