Cars on Campus


During the past year, I have gathered many examples of cars found on the Governor's Academy campus. Here are a few of my favorites from various years.

Photograph 1: A driver identified as Dummer Academy staffer in the 1939 Milestone yearbook


Photograph 2: Cars parked for campus Event, 1951


Photograph 3: Driving school vehicle, 1978


Photograph 4: Volkswagon Rabbit hatchback, 1978



Photograph 5: Peter Bragdon with antique automobile, 1993




In addition to the many relevant photographs housed in the Archives, converted 16 mm films are available that show automobiles, buses, and maintenance vehicles from the 1930s on. If any car buffs can identify the vehicles, please let me know!
