We are looking for more information about the church buildings seen in this photo, which features a Derham bodied motorcar. Based on the “Derham, Rosemont, PA” inscription at the bottom, we believe the image may have been taken somewhere in the Philadelphia area or along the Main Line. Do any local historians or longtime residents recognize these buildings?

#CSX2287 validated that thinking. MacDonald and Holbert finished 1st in GT, 4th overall, and the coupe went on to beat Ferrari for the 1965 GT World Championship.
