Taft Visits The A.Y.P.E. 1909
March 31st, 2009 @ 1:06 am by Cliffe | Sorted Photo Exposure |
Attention Taft fans! I know you’re out there! Have I got a photo for you! I can joke about it because I am somehow loosely related to the man (or so the family story goes — no bathtub jokes please). Scope out a couple photos from the 1909 Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition with Taft having a look around and a couple exhibit interiors. Click for higher res.
Two points.
One) Those exhibits look really popular. Look at all the visitors checking out the fisheries exhibit!
Two) We should all wear top hats again.
Puttin’ on the Ritz!
