Four Old T Photos you probably have seen before – 1909 Race Car #2 and/or #1

Post by Hap_Tucker » Thu Jun 27, 2019 6:40 pm

I’m always looking for nice photos of early Fords. Mr. A. Wayne Ferens’s article “A Test of Endurance: The 1909 New York to Seattle Race” has 3 middle size photos from that race (150kb or so) also a low resolution photo and a painting. I have seen those photos before, but I saved them as 3 of them are a better resolution than the ones I already had saved. And I thought some of you might enjoy seeing them again and/or making them one of your screen savers. No I didn’t repost them but the link to their site is: https://www.motorcities.org/story-of-th ... ce-in-1909 and below is a cropped sample:

There is also his article – short, easy, and good read.

Respectfully submitted,

Thanks Hap. Sometimes I see these things and forget where they were. It is so good to see them again and often additional information like this.
I appreciate it.
Rich
When did I do that?
