Titled "Lincoln Highway 3," this picture appears to be one of a numbered set tied to the Lincoln Highway, the first road marked to cross the United States from coast to coast. Promoters including Carl Fisher, with support from automakers, organized the route, which was dedicated in 1913 and ran roughly 3,400 miles from Times Square to San Francisco through Nebraska, Wyoming, Utah and Nevada. Many stretches were unpaved, rutted and sparsely signed, so motorists relied on painted markers and local booster guides. The record gives no further detail about this scene, but the series shows how the highway pulled small towns onto the national map.
