Vintage shots from days gone by!

Notice the banner on the right "47" Ford, the one in the picture is a 46' isn't it ? Must have been a holdover.

 

Nice old Franklin auto.....

 

It's Cal Worthington not Cal Wortjington and, no, it's not him. This is/was a Ford dealer in Worthington, Ohio.

 

[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Okay, that's Jack Dempsey in a 1921 McFarlan, apparently. But is the year really '21? Anybody know when the Biflex bumpers began to be available and popular? [/FONT]

 

Okay, one source says that's a '24 McFarlan, which seems closer, anyway. BUT, I was really wondering when the Biflex bumpers began to be widely available.

(Incidentally, Jack liked this car so much, he bought a '26, as well, so maybe this photo is more like 1925?)

 

I believe Bi-Flex stared manufacturing bumper in 1920. I may be off a bit.
