I'm sure these guys sold model T parts. This is one of my favorite photos and mounted on a canvas backing.

The Harley must be 1925 or later.
I have no idea where they were located and can't find them on the web. Has anybody heard of them?

When did I do that?

Just of few miles away from me across the Mississippi in Iowa. Most of Downtown Davenport has be redeveloped and the Cycle shop would have been where the parking lot is now. In the background of the picture is the Mississippi River and in the Flood of 1965 the water level in that parking lot would have been about 5 feet and two city blocks up Ripley Street (behind the photographer - I was there !

The past is a great place and I don't want to erase it or to regret it, but I don't want to be its prisoner either.

It may just be a painted boarder to imply that they also sell replacement Windshields. The top of the box in front of it has a very shiny surface as well
