Untitled (Not a Sunday driver)
1942

A black and white photograph of a man sitting inside an older model car, peering out through the windshield. A sign is affixed to the inside of the windshield that reads "NOT A SUNDAY DRIVER - This car being USED for BUSINESS And not for pleasure." The image has a vintage feel, and the man appears to be focused on something outside the frame.
