History "Hot Rod" Show - The Lost Kodachromes

that was the very first Hot Rod Show I ever went to, my cousin was a member of the "drivin duces" and he took me,I was all of 12 years old. It was at the New York Coliseum.I remember it all vividly like it was yesterday.

 

What a great thread , I remember a lot of those cars from when I was getting into rodding ,thanks...

 

I was at that show in Oct. 1962. Both Roth and Mouse were selling airbrush shirts. I asked Roth to do a sweatshirt for me with my Porsche 356 coupe on it. He complained about having trouble making it not look like a VW, but finally did a really nice picture. When I told him my nickname "Mouse" he got a real chuckle out of it and copied Stanley Mouse's trademark mouse on the shirt front.

Given the prices I've seen on Roth artwork lately, I'm wondering what this shirt is worth. Any idea where I might get some information and/or sell it? I hesitate to just throw it up on ebay. As an old retired guy I could use the money.

As in the pictures, the shirt shows it's age with discoloration, cut-off sleeves and a couple of holes, but the artwork is still nice.

Thanks for any help.

Alan.
