Auto polo

A photo of some fellows playing polo with horseless carriages.

Auto Polo

Looks like someone depressed their halting caliper a bit too quickly.

Update: From the NY Times, a report from 1912 on auto polo. The same page of the newspaper also contains a report of two gentleman who crossed the United States in a car without getting a single flat tire.

The two front tires contained Oregon air when they reached Massachusetts.
