Maybe you have tried this:

Perhaps they have “Motor Age” too.
When did I do that?

Rob probably all ready looked, I checked , as a member , and only the June 6, 1907 issue is on-line in the HCIF library. Don’t have that early of copy.

John,
That’s it! Any chance for a higher resolution copy? My email is robheyen1 at gmail.com. Maybe closeups of the photos?
Thank you!

Thanks guys. I had a poor quality copy, so knew what I was looking for, but couldn't locate another copy. This helped me finish a project that has been a long time in the making (at least, in my mind). I'm starting another link with it if anyone is interested, regarding Ford's record setting victory in the 24 hour contest held at the Michigan State Fairground race track in June, 1907.
Thanks again,
Rob
