Children - 5th times a charm 1915 tissue paper

Colourized photo from 1915 Original Title: Group of African American children playing Location: Washington DC I bet you did this when you were a kid, if not this then something similar. Gathering scrap parts where ever you could find them. Asking for wood or just taking it where ever you could find it. Then build a fort, a tree house, or in this case a soap box racer. It probably had a bumpy ride, and considering this is the 5th version, it makes me shudder what the others looked like. As you can see it has the latest in technology when it comes to steering it. And the kid in the back without shoes, will be serving as the brakes. Why ruin good sneakers? If they survive, the other kids may get a ride.
