Cool picture! Pun intended!
Reminds me of some of our past St. Patty's day snowstorms, back in
the good ol' days when Winters around here were rough.
Thanks for posting.

There’s hope! It’s thawing on the sidewalk and you can buy a cee-gar after you get your haircut. Great picture !
Thanks for posting it Tim. Any idea where this was ?

It looks like the business owners on the right side of the street as shown were more generous to the snow plow crew than those on the left. :lol: :lol:

:lol: Maybe, Henry ? Actually the snow has been plowed from the curb to the center of the street on both sides, something that’s still done around here today. It sure cuts down on jay-walking !! :D

Looks like the Coupe is missing a rear fender when you enlarge the picture.

Sure does ! Maybe torn off when chains came loose ?
Is that a Model A following ? Parked cars seem to indicate early ‘30s for the photo.
