Gotta love picture #5.
It has a lot of cool stuff in it: - a model cat boat - your grand father' watch - sponge bob square pants retarded cousin; sponge boob no pants - and aeroplane compass - a cool picture of the early NY Police Motorcycle Cops; better know in the force as 'motors'. I'm not certain but those motorcycles may have been Popes. - some lip balm that was probably fresh back when poodle skirts and the hoola-hoop were popular - the Tao of Pooh? |

Okay, the boat is a Gill Smith model of a local cat boat (Gill was a long island designer/builder) Right, that's Chauncey's watch That's a cute little doll my daughter made me for Christmas That's one of the compass' from Athena That picture is, I think, a collection of guys in the 30's with there bikes. Not sure of the police connection but will look closer. An old friend gave me that, I loved the whole scene, looks legit. Hey, I just bought that lipstick! I love the Tao of Pooh, one of my favorite books, but that one is Tao Ching by Steven Mitchell. My goal is to understand it one day. All these things are dear, I'll take a wider shot, you'll love the oil painting above those dudes and their bikes... In fact, lets have a contest; who can give the year make and model for it! (Hint, it's a car) Cheers Peter |

Here's a link to the 'Motors'... [www.policemotorunits.com] I was wrong about the bikes; they were actually Indians as seen in the newspaper clip in the link. |

It is a car, a revolutionary one at the time. I don't think it sold well either. That flip out windshield was the coolest thing, I had it on my powerwagon too. Remember, 1936. |
