Over the past few nights I’ve made a small inroad into the towering pile of old photos received from my esteemed amigo Francois. A good number are from the world wars; many more are from the US (not, not just Indians and Harleys, we’re also talking Thor, Flying Merkel, Excelsior and Emblem); some exquisite pre-WW1 ads have been aded to the Artwork page—and many more pics have been absorbed by the main timeline and the second melange page, which is filling up to the point that I’ll need to set up Melange III. I now plan to get back to 1946 after which I’ll get back on schedule with 1948.
