Rambo completed the drive which was July 10-19 1910 in less than 10 days. The tour which featured 74 cars was organized by the Atlanta Constitution in order to promote better roads. The automobile behind her was identified as a Columbia.A Nov. 4 1910 Marietta Daily Journal article reported that the Atlanta Constitution presented to Rambo âa handsome loving cup as a souvenir of her 1000-mile tour around the state.â The cupâs inscription read âPresented to Miss Regina Rambo by The Atlanta Constitution. The first woman to drive an automobile 1000-miles around Georgia. October 26 1910.âSusan Aikman said âFew people drove cars in 1910 â but naturally Regina Rambo Benson did. She has always been among the first to do things and do them in a big way. ... Her 1910 tour of Georgia was made in a Columbia automobile. She was accompanied by Mrs. Joseph Brown wife of the then governor of Georgia Mrs. S.D. Rambo her mother and Lucy Ellis of Oakland. The 1000-mile Good Roads tour included such points as Albany Valdosta Waycross Savannah Athens and ended in Atlanta.âPhoto courtesy of Marietta Daily Journal
