Dick, have you seen the July 1910 Milwaukee Journal Comet Motorcycle Co. ad with accompanying short paragraph? Granted this is a "factory" ad and not a dealer ad. The ad makes mention of spring frame & spring fork, single cylinder 40 Horse Power. LOL, I think the typesetter forgot to place a period between the 4 and 0.

No, I haven't ever seen that. It must have been just before they closed the doors. Ya, 40hp is pretty funny. That typesetter needs better glasses, Thanks

1913 Kissel Car factory racer at SE Iowa Red flag tour

Hartford has a car museum in the old Libby's canning factory. It has quite a few Kissel kars. It's quite a nice museum.

In September of 2008 my father & I visited the Wisconsin Automotive Museum in Hartford for the Southeastern Wisconsin Short Track Hall of Fame show. During the late 60's - early 70's we attended all of the Milwaukee Mile USAC races and many nights at Hales Corners, love the Wisconsin modifieds and sportsman cars of that era and saw the transition to late model stock cars at Hales.

Hey Dave, I was on Fuzzy Fassbemder's pit crew for one season and we raced at Hales Corner every Saturday night. It was 1970/71. He had the Gremlin body on his modified. Only lasted one season. Way to much drinking involved. After the races we stopped at Shakey's Pizza for pizza and beer.

Small World! Who knew!

Although this isn't an ad I think it will count. I first saw this ticket 30'ish years ago and decided a couple weeks ago to see if the guy still had it. Well he did and he decided to sell it. Ya just never know.

25 cents and the ladies were free. They knew how to do it!
