    King of the cowboys

    Karol, The sale of this truck from the Roy Rogers estate predates the museum move to Branson. It was purchased directly from the ranch in the early 70's. That owner kept it until the person I bought it from purchased it in the late 80's. From the time he bought it until I...

    I'm not familiar with "Come and See". I assume this is a movie? Documentary style or fiction? From what era? I'd be interested in tracking it down. Best, Toots

    BMW R-71/R-75

    Speedster, Thanks for the links. I was already familiar with two of those but the third is a great help. Still looking, if anyone else can provide a lead I'd appreciate it. Best, Toots

    Glaring Film Gaffs! (Or: The Dry Look in 1917?)

    Can't recall the film's name but last week I was watching a movie on TCM made in the late 50's but supposed to take place in the 1920's. Scene: Interior of 1928 Buick driving on city streets with standard "rear window film" of traffic. Every car following was from the 1950's! Best, Toots

    ...The Good German, by Joseph Kanon? It has been made into a movie starring George Clooney & Cate Blanchett. How accurate did you feel the author's desciption was regarding the times and treatment of German civilians by the Russians during the time of the allied occupation of Berlin and...

    BMW R-71/R-75

    Yes I have. And after a lengthy investigation I've decided to try and locate an original BMW. Although the Chinese CJ750 looks like a good copy, it is just built from inferior materials and is unreliable at best. The Soviet built Ural is only marginally better than the Chinese version. Both...

    BMW R-71/R-75

    Anyone know of a reliable source for one of these WWII vintage motorcycles? I am looking for a relatively complete bike, but not a fully restored one. I'd prefer to do the restoration myself.

    Hello from California

    First time in Southern Cal? You'll enjoy Hollywood. Lots of old sites and land marks still to see. The Strip on Sunset is also great and if you head west on Sunset through Beverly Hills, Bel Air and Brentwood you can head past the spot where Norma Desmond's mansion was supposed to be, you'll...

    King of the cowboys

    Anyone own (or know someone who owns) a celebrity vehicle? This year I bought a 1952 International pick up formerly owned by Roy Rogers. He had it on his ranch over in Apple Valley. He and Dale probably used it to haul hay bales for Trigger. lol I found it over in L.A. It had been parked in...

    strangest, weirdist or just plain wrong toy from your youth

    I guess it would have to be "Incredible Edibles". They came out about a year after "Creepy Crawlers" did. Remember, the insects and worms you could make by pouring "Goop" into the metal molds and heating them until they were rubbery. Then you peeled them out of the mold and played with them...
