Damn.... what a creepy offhand way to advertise motorcycles. i fail to see the connection between a prison camp laundry camp and the liberating experience of riding a motorbike. i wonder who the factory thought the ad would appeal to and for what purpose. What's missing in the picture is a couple bloodhounds leashed to the handlebar. White guy with a gun. Black guy in stripes. That bike is not faster than a speeding bullet, but maybe not much faster than a bloodhound who's good for an honest 40 mph. Sweet mother of Mary; my mind is flashing in all sorts of directions. OK; deep breath.. i'll post no more on my interpretation of this picture so i don't start a riot. We are about old motorcycles, We are about old motorcycles, We are about old motorcycles.Originally posted by badger34
Steve, you are correct on this being a H-D factory advertising image. It is a prison camp laundry scene and I have one other image from this ad shoot with H-D catalog number in my files. I notice the above image appears to have been taken off of a book page, now I'm going to be searching from which book.Steve Swan

Its not that hard to cut the images from a quote, Folks!
Just highlight and delete everything from [ATTACH to ATTACH].
Back to heavy utility machines, now military...
