The metadata describes it as Jones, Ellis O. With unknown woman, standing next to car, ca. 1920.
In the Joseph A. Labadie Collection at the University of Michigan:
A collection documenting the history of social protest movements and marginalized political communities from the 19th century to the present
In the 1930s, the U-M Library’s Joseph A. Labadie Collection — the oldest such collection in America — was called “probably the most complete record of the social unrest of our times that has ever been assembled."No other context for the photograph is offered, but I'll see what I can discover.
If the date is correct he would be about 47 years of age.
[n.b. 15 January 2015. The archivists tell me there is no further identification or useful contextualization of the photograph]
