And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
I've got to go with Chickenmom on this, the '53 Buick and locomotive are just the way I remember the 50's. Post war America and life was all Norman Rockwell.
Without a doubt, the second one! (The last one is pretty cool, too - remember when all cars had of few of them on the windows?)
