Thing of the past ...
This lot is filled with new Model T Ford cars and trucks. The most popular auto by 1920 was the Ford Model T. It was reliable and inexpensive. By 1926, one could buy a new Model T for as little as $300.
“I learned to drive when I was twelve years old. I just learned to drive by myself, nobody to teach me. You didn’t have to have a driver’s license. It was a great shift, an old Model T. And one day I was allowed to take the car, I guess I was about fifteen at the time. . . . We went out on Arapahoe [Road], and I bumped into a bunch of cows. I couldn’t stop fast enough. It didn’t damage the car or anything, but I was scared to death to tell my folks about it. And I didn’t get the car by myself after that.”

Thing of the past ...

Hitchhiker with His Dog "Tripper" on U.S. 66, where U.S. 66 Crosses the Colorado River at Topock.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) was established in 1970 at a time of rising public concern in the United States about pollution and its effects on human health. In 1972-77 the EPA sponsored the Documerica program to photographically document subjects of environmental concern in America. The images were made by approximately 70 well-known photographers contracted by the EPA for the project. Photographers included Denny Lyon, Gene Daniels, Marc St. Gill, Bill Strode, Charles O'Rear, Jack Corn, Tomas Sennett, Yoichi Okamote, and Ken Hayman. This photograph of a hitchhiker in Arizona was taken by O'Rear on Route 66, the celebrated highway established in 1926 that ran from Chicago, Illinois, to Los Angeles, California. Route 66 was decommissioned in 1985, its function having been taken over by the more modern Interstate Highway System.
O'Rear, Charles, born 1941 Photographer.

Notes:
- Significance: The Eugene Rourke Ranch, founded at the turn of the century by an immigrant from Ireland, expanded to become one of the most prosperous in the history of the Pinon Canyon area of Las Animas County, Colorado. The Rourke Ranch reflects several outstanding examples of southwestern vernacular architecture. The main residence possesses Hispanic features, including adobe walls, a flat roof, and portals, or porches. The residence also has pedimented surrounds above the doorways and windows. The outbuildings represent other construction techniques, including log, jacal, and stone. The variety of building materials was characteristic of Hispanic building complexes, which typically utilized specific types of materials for different structures.
