The driver in this 1909 Harrison postcard was named Atherton. He was apparently a producer of postcards. The second card above is Stageway Coaches, a limousine service, that was located at 414 East Court Street, Cincinnati.

I do not know the make, or year, of this neat little vehicle belonging to the Stanley Hardware Co. at 4857 Glenway Avenue, but I am hoping someone "out there" can help me out.

There was a automobile show that was held February 21-26, 1910. This card was put out by the J. H. Ratliff Automobile Co. 30 Opera Place . It shows all the American winners of cups given out at that show.

6 cards for the Moore Oil Company. s.w. cor. York & McLean Ave.

Inside Outside

The images above are of the automobile parts store of Coughlin & Davis that was on Seventh & Walnut Sts. in Cincinnati. The first 2 images is of doublecard which, if you wanted their catalog, had to be torn apart and the outside bottom portion was mailed back. The third image is a different image of the store using a regular postcard.

A couple of pieces of trivia:

In 1860 there were 87 makers of carriages. In 1919 there were 8. The last was the Phoenix Carriage Co. at 901 Evans St. (1931)
In 1903 there were 108 Automobiles registered, by 1917 there were 22,000.

BUSES

Located at the southwest corner of 5th and Sycamore this Greyhound Bus Terminal opened in June of 1942. During the war years 175 buses arrived and departed every day. There are many cards of this depot and almost all of them are a variety of the first card. The third card is very rare, this is the only one I have ever seen. The reason for this is pretty obvious, there is a major flaw in the image the width of the card. These cards were probably never intended to be placed on the market. This one slipped thru somehow, this is my guess anyway. Anybody else have one of these?
There was also a Trailways Depot in Cincinnati, I know because that is how I arrived in the city in the early 60's. I have never seen a postcard of this depot.
