Rex Schuder of Lawrenceville was the first to identify the Mystery Photo in the last edition, noting that it was taken
in Pittsburgh, Pa. It was sent in by George Graf of Palmyra, Va.
Bob Foreman of Grayson gave more information: “The Duquesne Incline provides a scenic ride up Mount Washington, providing a great view of downtown Pittsburgh.” Jo Pinder, formerly of Gwinnett, and now of Baltimore, sent her answer while on a small ship Alaska cruise: “Sure looks like the Duquesne Incline in North America, Pittsburgh, Pa., my hometown. Used for wonderful views of the city, cheap dates and a way to get to Mt. Washington.”
Other recognizing the photo included Steve Rausch, Peachtree Corners; Susan McBrayer, Sugar Hill; and Becky Panetta, Dacula.
