Out Standing In His Field

 

Leaving aside the dreadful pun, this is actually quite an interesting slide. 

Obviously, no info on the slide - not even a date for it, so it's fun to look for clues.  The colour slide, suit, bow tie and two-tone shoes make me think 1940s or 50s, but the vehicle doesn't look particularly oversize like most American cars.  

In fact, it looks very much like a  Ford Popular. That model was produced by Ford UK, and the fact that it has a steering wheel on the right, and an AA badge seems to confirm that We're Not In Kansas.

The scenery and the field of....crops doesn't help much.

More interesting is the car number plate - " B-4570 US Forces in Germany."

Also interesting -
