    The height of luxury, a convertible charabanc! If it rained, hoops were attached to the clips on the side of the vehicle, then the soft top was thrown over it.

    We only know 7 of the people on the left of this photo. They are Willie Foster (standing, wearing a waistcoat) and his family, Tom Foster and his family, and Sid Foster.
