Trundlebed Tales: Bringing Laura Ingalls Wilder, Children’s Literature, and History to Life
Fording the Lincoln Highway
The Henry Ford Museum has a wonderful archive. I love the stuff they share in their YouTube collection. This lovely little 2 minute video is the highlights of a trip the 10 millionth Model T took driving across the country in a caravan on the Lincoln Highway. It was a silent movie and the text screens have been cut way too short, but the text from all of them appears the information about section below the video when you watch it on YouTube. You may want to pause and read them.
