The fourth woman is missing. Image is dated in the 1920`s. Finally some female 1/24 scale car-related figures from another
company than Masterbox. Hope they have a similar quality.

Too bad we don't see the sculping of the faces..

Yeah...cause its the faces we look at a judge a figure by.

The original photo was probably posed since the women look like a bunch of fashion models and don't seem to have any grime on them. I only have to think about working on my car and I get grimy!

Things being what they were during the 1910s I don't think there were that many ladies working on cars. Rosie the Riveter didn't appear till the 1940s.

Bob, the high heeled shoes and rings on the fingers didn't give the game away either?

BTW, based on your comment, your nickname wouldn't be 'Pig-pen' by any chance??

That Model T has great potential as either in a WWl dio, or as a (rusted) jalopy in a modern setting.

To be honest, I've never seen a female mechanic in real life; only TV shows and contemporary movies with the exception of the WWII era.

None of the women in the photos at that link had any dirt on them - they were ALL posed shots.

One of my old girl friends could wrench on my Harley as good as anybody and I know quite a few women that work on their own vehicles. Wayne

You must never have served in the Armed Forces. In 1982, when I was a Company Commander, one of my best mechanics was female. She could often diagnose a problem just by listening to engine noise. And as for women's shoe styles, there simply were no other shoes for women to wear in the early 1900s-- low heeled boots were not designed in women's sizes until several years later. And don't forget all the "Rosie the riveters" who served as mechanics during WWII, some of them remained as mechanics after the war in smaller service stations. We had one named Ethyl in my neighborhood gas station when I was a kid growing up-- not sure if it was a nickname as a play on words, or her real name, but she knew engines.
