263 One of the first automobiles in Shelby
A scene of early Cleveland County shows one of the first automobiles in Shelby, a Reo, which belonged to the late J.D. Lineberger, pictured under the steering wheel, and Dr. Ben Palmer. The auto was for hire and carried passengers on short rides for a fee. In the front seat with Lineberger is the late Jake Russell of Shelby and in the center in the back seat is the late Laura Graham Robertson. The other two ladies could not be identified. The porch shown at left was on the old Shelby Hotel and was located on the present site of Loy's Men's Shop. In the background is the courthouse which was at the time under construction and the tool shed is seen at the right. This photo was taken around 1907 before Shelby boasted any paved streets.
