AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Photo album of several car trips through the Netherlands, as well as some journeys to Paris, France, Belgium, and Switzerland.
Oldest trip in 1905 (by car!), by a (apparently French-speaking?) family to and through the Netherlands.
and a number of travels in 1911, 1912, 1913, but also 1914 and 1915 (thus during the First World War).
O.a. Vlissingen, Rotterdam, Delft, Slot Loevestein, Veere, Aagtekerke, Middelburg, Haarlem, Oranjezoom, Domburg, Klein Duinvliet. Montreux, Paris-Dieppe.

A few photos of the cars themselves, including some with flat tires and on a ferry boat.
There are still many cargo ships visible on the landscape images of rivers.
A torpedo washed ashore on the coast near Domburg, Zeeland.

Certainly a wealthy family, able to make such journeys by car at that time.

Dimensions of the album H22 x W30cm.
Album with a green band, linen with leather embossing. In good condition.
About 85 photos; there are a few empty spots where photos have been removed.
The interior of the album shows signs of use and patina appropriate for its age.
