Cars of Coopersville (MUVE) 1905.
Go back in time about 110 years.
Cars were just developing
Coopersville is a MUVE (virtual world) model of a US town of the early 20th Century. It has houses of that era (houses of the Victorian and Edwardian times), offers clothing of that period, has transportation of that period (streetcars, early Fords, and horses), plays music of that time (especially ragtime), and has the early flying things (Wright Flyer, hot air balloons). Just right for a site visit by a class studying that part of history.
