Anyone have a good,clean image of the Johnson Motors,Inc logo? Any help would be appreciated....already have the Triumph racing book,all images too small to refer to,though... Thanks again...
Johnny, without sounding stupid,can you give me a little more info on the relationship of triumph/johnson motors?
Brush...allz I know is that an L.A. fella named Bill Johnson bought a cycle dealership in 1938 and expanded to include Triumphs, entering them in SoCal race events to help promote sales.....The detailed history of JoMo is best left to the experts,of which I figure into NOT one iota! I'm doing a jacket for the Mad Viking and want it accurate...if you can score that logo for me, I'll send you a nekkid pic of SkateFink....(I got it from ToyGhoul)...
HRLC.... Hahha...my family told me how good those cookies WERE...my wife and daughter can EAT like a 300 lb truckdriver with 2 buttholes Speaking of another pretty image, why not make "Nekkid Sk8Fink COOKIES"? Use a jellybean and two raisins for....well,you get the picture....
Johnson Motors was the Triumph and Ariel distributor for the western United States into the late '60s when Norton-Villiers-TRiumph was formed and the manufacturer took over distribution chores. JOMO was originally located on West Colorado in Pasadena, California. The facility included a large, classy showroom that often had no more than four or five different models on display. Also on display much of the time were cutaway motors mounted on pedestals. Neat stuff, bitchin' place. JOMO frequently bought fourth-cover ads in CYCLE magazine as well as prominent full-page ads in CYCLE WORLD in the '60s, and these would be good sources of logo images.
Johnny, I'll look through all my triumph stuff this weekend, I gotta have a good, large copy of that fucker somewhere.... but half my books and stuff like that is in my bedroom and half is unpacked at the shop.... so you know the deal.
hey Johnny, Sorry it's been a couple weeks - been busy at the shop and with the holidays and all... but I think this is what you are looking for... hope it helps.
Truth... Thanks man! That's exactly what I needed....all the ones I had were way too small to blow-up.....let me know if I can return the favor? Brush, thanks to you as well for even offering to help me out....as busy as you are,I really appreciate it!
