    Wow Book! The photos of the Franklin and the Jenny are simply AWESOME!
    I've collected early auto photos for ages. The Franklin is TOP SHELF!

    Just a little" brag." My best car photo is an 8x10 of an early Clement Bayard racing car with the driver and mechanic aboard. On the reverse is a press release : "(Drivers name) and his mechanic (name) in the Clement Bayard that finished second in the inaugural running of the Vanderbilt Automobile race on Long Island N.Y., Next year they hope to improve their finish" This race was the first "official" car race in America run in 1904. Any ephemera related to this event is VERY VERY rare.

    (I forgot their names.)

    Crowleys... That is TO cool. Good running order?

    Jeep was running when I parked/covered it three years ago to work on my Triumph motorcycles...too many projects, too little time.

    Boy, I didn't see Anund or any of the other replies after his when I posted yesterday morning! The last ones I remenber before posting were Fid's and Fig's. I bet I had my reply open while researching and that was when those replies were posted. Sorry!
