My favorites are the one from 1868 and camping with luggage.

Re: Very cool vintage camping pictures
I stopped and smiled at the one with the 1960 Valiant station wagon. My first car was a '66 Valiant 4-door sedan. -

That is a sweet looking Valiant. I like seeing the old campers. Saw some cool ones on the road last week. This was my favorite https://happiercamper.com
I like the retro look.Comment

Re: Very cool vintage camping pictures
Looking good; I have a collection of vintage camping pics on my screen saver; Unfortunately I have no idea whether they are copyrighted or not; so I dare not post them...
Enjoy!2006 Jeep Rubicon, TJ; 4.11 gears, 31" tires, 4:1 transfer case, lockers in both axles
For DD & "civilized" camping; 2003 Ford explorer sport, 4wd; ARB & torsen diffs, 4.10 gears, 32" MTs.
Ground tents work best for me, so far.
Experience along with properly set up 4WD will get you to & through places (on existing, approved 4WD trails) that 4WD, alone, can't get to.Comment

Re: Very cool vintage camping pictures
In the older ones, it doesn't look like the women are really having fun. I suspect their experience while "camping" wasn't much different from their life at home - cook with fire, clean up after the men and children, etc. Whereas the men got away from their "work" ( whether farming, business, etc.), and got to hunt and fish instead.“One could not be a successful scientist without realizing that, in contrast to the popular conception supported by newspapers and mothers of scientists, a goodly number of scientists are not only narrow-minded and dull, but also just stupid.” - James D.
