Vintage shots from days gone by!

I wonder what the story is on these rather odd custom bodied 42-8 style Lincolns. I have never seen any like that before.

Now, you boys look like ya think yer tough,
but lemme warn ya! There's a weird lady
in there who used ta work in the circus or
somethin'. She wears a bathing suit 24/7.
And every time she makes a sale, she blows
this lo-o-o-o-onnnng trumpet!



(Oh, her old man, Dada, owns the place,
but ya don't see him much. )

"Jazz Singer" Al Jolson with his roadster. Is that a Brewster
or just Brewster-bodied, you Brewster experts?

 

Me too! I grew up in Artesia and went to the Pike allot, hanging with buddies, took dates there, even got my first and only tattoo there at the Seven Seas Tattoo Shop.... Good Times!

The first computer I worked on in the early 60s had 19.2K YES K and we ran a whole bank on it (loans, savings, certificates, etc. etc.). Heck it's hard to find a photo (JPG) these days that's 19.2K. Those were the days my friends. Oh, no compiler or assembler either, all programs written in machine language.

 

Oh, canada!!!!!!!
