    Kokomo H.D. CIRCA. 1918

    Here is a panoramic picture I had to take in sections to get the best picture I could. Kokomo Indiana 1918.

        Great picture, Steve. I'm counting 2 Excelsiors, and 1 Indian in that mess of Harleys. Interesting mix of motorcycles of the time, as you see single speed, and later 3 speed bikes. The single speed riders must have had a real inferiority complex; but then many roads in America were pretty bad and the 3 speed guys may have been stuck in 1st, and 2nd most of the time.

          Dave and Jay Moody have the original. It could be 1917 as Eddie Polo shows starring in Bullseye and it was playing at the Star Theatre 1st picture.

              Maybe they would see fit to take it to a photo studio and have a high quality copy neg made. Then print some new ones. I would be a buyer.

                PS: The first thing I would do is to gently (over time,..) press it flat between glass.

                  Chris,

                  Dave and Jay closed up shop and moved to Florida 2 years ago and I do not have any contact info for them.

                  Sorry Steve

                    That is a street corner I don"t think it will press flat. LOL

                      I meant the wavelength, not the angularity, Steve!

                      My software is too old to handle it...

                      (sigh)
