The keyboard is let down by the tiny enter key which is right next to the raised ridge on the keyboard tray. I'm sure I would get used to it if I was banging away on the Psion every day. Still, the keyboard on the eMate is nicer and neither one can hold a candle to the best portable keyboard ever made. 😁 #retrocomputing #psion #newton #nec #modelt

My lovely NEC PC-8201a, a slabtop from the early 80s, rests on the floor.

My landlord collects antique autos that were service vehicles. This is the car that was parked under our place and filling the kitchen with gas fumes. Apparently an original police and/or fire department vehicle, as you might be able to tell from some of the alternate custom design.

This sucker is LOUD. Imagine a big car engine running without an enclosure and drop the pitch two octaves but keep it that loud, you have some kind of an idea what it's like to stand 20m away from it.

Three-quarter view of an early 20th century Model T Ford automobile originally designed to be an emergency response vehicle for police or fire. It is immaculately kept and fully functional, the brass trim and shiny black metal body with wooden frame pieces around the long black leather seat / couch in front if a very small truck bed that reads PATROL in gold lettering on the side.

Untitled photo, possibly related to: Migrant family from Oklahoma in Texas. A family of six alongside the road. An example of how they fall between the relief agencies. The father, aged thirty-five, is an intelligent fellow, a painter by trade. Advanced tuberculosis, victim of an occupational disease. Ineligible for WPA (Works Progress Administration), rated as totally disabled. As a state charge under Oklahoma relief standards, the family were told the maximum relief would be seven dollars every two weeks. They lost their home, their furniture, took to the road a year ago and when the photographs were made they were found to be without money, shelter, and without food for the four children

A black-and-white photograph depicting a family of six, including two adults and three young children. They are sitting in the shade under trees beside an old-fashioned Model T Ford car parked on what appears to be dirt ground with grassy fields stretching into the distance behind them. The setting seems rural or semi-rural.
The man is standing between the tree trunk and a large barrel, while leaning against it for support as he holds his young child in one arm and has an older boy sitting on his hip. A woman sits beside him; she's wearing a long-sleeved shirt with puffy sleeves typical of early 20th-century fashion and is holding her younger daughter who appears to be around four years old.
The two children seated on the ground are looking at something outside of the frame, possibly another child or an activity. The older girl seems to wear a dress that reaches below her knees while the boy beside her wears shorts and sneakers; both appear casual in clothing appropriate for outdoor activities.
There's a sense of hardship as they have various items scattered around them including what seem like bowls on the ground next to their vehicle, suggesting they may be preparing food or just finished eating. It gives an impression that this family might be traveling with limited resources at a time when relief programs were in place due to economic difficulties.
The image is annotated by text which suggests it captures a migrant f [...]

Texan refugees' car. They are seeking work in the carrot fields of the Coachella Valley. California

#Texan #theCoachellaValley #California #ModelT #A38-851 #DorotheaLanges #undefined #photography #DorotheaLange

loc.gov/pictures/item/20177696

The image depicts a vintage vehicle, possibly from the early 1900s, parked on what appears to be dry, cracked earth. The car is an old-fashioned Model T type with large spoked wheels and dual front tires. It has a prominent radiator grille at the front, characteristic of that era's automobiles.
The truck attached behind it suggests this vehicle was used for transportation or hauling goods during its time in use. There are several objects placed on top of the car including what looks like two wooden crates stacked next to each other and an old-fashioned chair with rungs visible through a gap between them, adding an element of disarray.
The license plate reads "A38-851," indicating it was registered in California at some point. The overall scene is devoid of people or additional context about where this photo might have been taken during Dorothea Lange's travels and photography capturing life conditions such as Texan refugees seeking work in the Coachella Valley, which corresponds with historical records.
The black-and-white nature of the photograph adds to its vintage feel, evoking a sense of nostalgia for that bygone era.

Untitled photo, possibly related to: In Farm Security Administration migratory labor camp at Farmersville, California. Model T Fords still carry migrants

#Farmersville #California #ModelT #CaliforniaWorlds #SanFrancisco #theGreatDepression #undefined #photography #DorotheaLange

loc.gov/pictures/item/20177712

The image is a black and white photograph depicting an old Model T Ford truck situated in what appears to be a rural or semi-rural environment. The vehicle has large, spoked wheels with whitewall tires and round headlights mounted on the front fenders. Its license plate reads "California World's Fair 32" suggesting it may have been displayed at an exhibition like the Golden Gate International Exposition in San Francisco during that year.

In the background of the photo, there are several makeshift or temporary structures which resemble agricultural storage units or worker cabins. A leafless tree is also visible on the left side of the frame and a puddle can be seen to the right, reflecting part of the vehicle's undercarriage. Another older Model T Ford is parked in the distance behind these structures.

The photograph has handwritten inscriptions at its bottom corners: "L.A.B.D." appears upside down on the lower-left corner while another set reads "8-36 12" vertically aligned to the right side of the frame, possibly indicating a date or other relevant information. The overall condition and style suggest it could be part of historical documentation related to migratory labor camps during the Great Depression era in California.

The image is a vintage postcard depicting an aerial view of Central Park in New York City during what appears to be early motorized vehicle era. It shows a bustling scene with various types of transportation including horse-drawn carriages and Model T-style automobiles on wide, paved roads that encircle the park. At its center stands a large statue atop a pedestal, surrounded by trees and greenery typical of Central Park's landscape design. The sky is overcast, suggesting either early morning or late afternoon light conditions. In the foreground, there are several pedestrians in period attire walking along pathways around the entrance to the park at 5th Avenue and 59th Street. Trees line the perimeter with urban buildings visible beyond them, indicating an expansive cityscape surrounding this oasis of green space within New York City's dense streetscape.

Untitled photo, possibly related to: Between Tulare and Fresno (see general caption). Two families originating from Independence, Kansas, on U.S. 99. Started out from Fresno that morning for work cotton chopping

#Tulare #Fresno #Independence #Kansas #ModelT #DorotheaLange #American #theGreatDepressions #America

loc.gov/pictures/item/20177720

The image is a black and white photograph depicting two vintage Model T-style automobiles parked on an open, grassy field. One car has its roof removed to reveal passengers seated inside. Both vehicles are adorned with luggage atop their roofs, suggesting travel or transportation of goods.

In the background stands a person in work attire: overalls and a hat, seemingly observing or overseeing something related to these cars. The setting appears to be rural, possibly during an early 20th-century timeframe due to the design of the automobiles and clothing style.

The image carries historical context as it depicts scenes from "Between Tulare and Fresno," relating two families originating from Independence, Kansas who are engaged in cotton-chopping work near Fresno that morning. The photograph is attributed to Dorothea Lange, an American photographer known for her documentation of various social issues including the Great Depression's impact on rural communities.

This image captures a moment in time showcasing not only transportation but also labor and migration during early 20th-century America, highlighting historical aspects such as industrialization, travel habits, and economic activities.

Untitled photo, possibly related to: The end of the Model "T" abandoned in open field along Highway 99. North of Eugene, Oregon

#Eugene #Oregon #ModelT

loc.gov/pictures/item/20177735

The image depicts a vintage vehicle, specifically an old Model T Ford car. This car is iconic for its early 20th-century design, featuring a simple, boxy shape with a flat front and rear fenders. There are no visible windows on the side of the car, suggesting that it might have been a later model or simply lacking them. The vehicle's color is dark, perhaps black or dark gray, and it appears to be parked in a field with a cloudy sky overhead.

The image has a vintage quality to it, which may suggest it was taken some time ago, possibly during the early to mid-20th century. There are no people visible in the photo, giving a sense of solitude or abandonment to the old car. The text "Eugene" might indicate that this location is near Eugene, Oregon, though without additional context it's unclear if "Eugene" refers to a specific place or simply serves as a label for the image.
