Standard Oil Company of California trucks at Walla Walla, Washington, during 1938.
And there I was as a child, thinking that Walla Walla, Washington, was a made up name used by Daffy Duck in a cartoon.

The Crawford Auto-Aviation Collection is a museum in the University Circle neighborhood of Cleveland, Ohio. Part of the Western Reserve Historical Society, it was founded by industrialist Frederick C. Crawford of TRW, and opened in 1965. The collection began as the Thompson Products Auto Album, which was also founded by Crawford.
Its eclectic collection of classic vehicles includes a replica of 1890s Cleveland main street, antique carriages, early Harley Davidson motorcycles, a Willys Custom Sedan, and a P-51 Mustang racing plane used in the National Air Races. The oldest car in the collection is an 1895 Panhard et Levassor, while the most modern is the robotic car named "DEXTER", which was team Team Case's entry in 2007 DARPA Urban Challenge 2007, in which it placed in the top 20 entries. As of 2011, the museum has 37 cars that are more than 100 years old, the largest such collection in the world. One of the rarest cars in the collection is an aluminum bodied 1932 prototype Peerless, designed by Frank Hershey, which was never put into production and was the last passenger vehicle made in Cleveland.
Burholme Park and the Robert W. Ryerss Museum and Library was a gift of the last descendant of the Ryerss family, a prominent Philadelphia family. Robert W. Ryerss, who died on Feb. 18, 1895 at the age of 65 and, left his estate to Mary Reed, his wife of eight months and the head house keeper of Burlhome for 27 years. He left everything to her under the condition that upon her death the best part of his land and much of his estate would be left to the “People of Philadelphia, forever” as a museum and public lending library. Mary Reed Ryerss spent the rest of her life traveling around the world collecting objects for the Museum and planning for the library and park.
History of the estate:
The Burholme estate was built in 1859 by Joseph Waln Ryerss, a wealthy importer of goods from Asia and president of the Tioga railroad company, to be the families’ summer home. The Waln family, who intermarried frequently with the Ryerss family, were descendants of Nicholas Waln, who sailed on “The Welcome” with William Penn in 1682. The Waln and Ryerss families were part of the Philadelphia social elite.
Today, The Burholme Estate still exists as a park, library and museum that is run by the Fairmount Park Commission. Residents of the Fox Chase area can sign up for a library card.
The Ryerss family
The Ryerss family were philanthropists and early animal rights activists. Robert’s stepmother, Anne Ryerss, would care for elderly and sick work horses on the Burlhome estate. When she died in 1888, she left $30,000 to care for “aged and infirmed” horses and an additional $40,000 to create and maintain a hospital. Robert W. Ryerss bought land an 80 acre farm in Bustleton and became the first president of the Ryerss Farm for Aged Equines until he retired in September 1894. The Ryerss Farm for Aged Equines was among the first societies in the United States to protect horses and large animals. Today the Ryerss Farm for Aged Equines still exists in Pottstown, PA.
In addition, to the Ryerss love of horses, Robert W. Ryerss was instrumental in helping create the Pennsylvania Society for the Prevention of Cruelty of Animals and the Anti-Vivisectionist Society of Pennsylvania.
Visitors of the museum can see the family’s pet cemetery and the many portraits the Ryerss commissioned of their pets.
When Joseph W. Ryerss died in 1868 he left the estate to his only son Robert W. Ryerss. Robert W. Ryerss was educated at the University of Pennsylvania as an attorney, but because of the family’s wealth, he was able to live a life of leisure, while using much of his inheritance for philanthropic purposes. He traveled around the world and collected objects to display in the home. In addition, Robert W. Ryerss, was an avid reader. When he died he left his library of 11,000 books to be used as a public library. The Ryerss public library was one of the first public library’s in the city. On May 14, 1910 Burlhome Park and the Ryerss Museum and Library opened to the public and has stayed open ever since.
