                I have three more portraits of Linda, Mike!

                Plus this one of her between Dot Smith and Dot Robinson:

                Her last name is either Duglan, Dugean, or maybe even Douglas?

                      More tour competition this time from the Boozefighters Club. Classic bobber of the the day.

                        Or the Laconia N.H. Tour, the oldest in the nation, Mike?

                        Of the four or five pics I have of Dot Smith, this is my favorite:

                          Oh yes I have seen that photo and didn't realize it was Dot Smith from the earlier photo you posted.

                          • The above picture of Dot Smith is the cover photo for the book; 'The American Motorcycle Girls 1900 to 1950' by Cristine Sommer Simmons. Excellent book, and highly recommended.

                            • Sounds like a book I might actually read, Eric!

                              When pics are 'shared' all over the 'Net, its hard to know where they originated.

                              Here's a couple more of her...

                              Dot Smith 1939.jpg

                              Unfortunately, we must rely upon the accuracy of any descriptions that we can snag with them, and most lost their descriptions when they became snags themselves.
                              Or worse, mis-labeled: This one was labeled as Dot Robinson, but isn't she much too tall, Folks?

                              PS: If it showed her teeth better, there would be no question which Dot it is...

                              • Going back to the Servicar/Cadillac question. Harley advertising at the time said the shop mechanic would drive to your house on the Servicar, tie it to the back of your car, drive to the dealership for the car service, then return the serviced vehicle to your house the same way and drive back to the dealership on the Servicar. On that logic, it looks like the mechanic has just arrived at the dealership with the car for service and is unshackling the Servicar.
