Coaching Club Picnic
In the late 19th century, a number of millionaires practiced the old English coaching techniques of the early 19th century. Meeting in London, England, New York, N.Y. or Newport, R.I. coaching groups would take their vehicle for a one-day, two-day, or longer trip along chosen routes through several counties, going to prearranged inns and hotels along the routes. This is a photographic print of 13 individuals from the Coaching Club having a picnic at Bateman's, Newport, R.I.
