A CUBAN VOLANTE: This vehicle, formerly so common in all
West Indian cities, is now used only for the accommodation of
travelers on the island highways. Though ungainly in appearance,
it is an exceedingly comfortable conveyance for long journeys.
Photograph shows the postillion on the wheel horse, and coach
boy in the rear. (1898; This is the prototype for the
famous Volante sports cars.) Spanish-American War Gallery |
