Auto Polo on Coney Island
I found these auto polo photos among the Digital Collections of the Library of Congress. They are all part of the George Grantham Bain Collection.
A 1912 article, in the New York Times, said,
“It would be hard to devise a game in which the players took bigger chances of mishap. The factor of danger may prove either a damper or a stimulus.”

I’ve seen Quad Polo played in AK. Four-wheelers and a volley ball (riders kicked at the ball as they pass).

Got photos?
