Nap Lajoie Sitting in Car photograph

Dateundated

DescriptionA black-and-white photograph of Napoleon "Nap" Lajoie sitting in an automobile. Lajoie sits in the backseat wearing a white coat, a dark scarf, wind goggles, and a dark pork-pie hat. In front of Lajoie sits a woman in the passenger seat wearing a dark coat, sunglasses, a white hat, and gloves. The automobile looks to be an early automobile from the 1910s-1920s. The car sits on a dirt road with rocks and debris surrounded by a landscape of trees and small boulders. Behind the car in the background appears to be a small building that sells food and drinks. The location and year taken cannot be identified. On the reverse (not shown), a caption states, "Lajoie's Overland," indicated this is Lajoie's automobile.
