Title: Solved - MJW #302 - Auto Wash Bowl Chicago 1924

Probably an easy one but therefore an easy point to be earned?
What is happening here - two cars who appear to have ended up in a sea lion pool?
Also required is where and when.

Auto Wash Bowl,a very unusual car wash built in Chicago,1924.
The car was first run around in the pool of water to flush mud and dirt off of the undercarriage. It was then driven up into a stall and the car was washed in the normal matter to complete the job.

If you think about it, the idea makes a strange sort of sense.  In 1924 there were still a lot of horse drawn transport about so the mud under the car would be, shall we say, "horse exhaust".  :yuck:
