    That last one must've been made by Caterpillar. I love this thread. Thanks again to Jurassic for starting it.

              I wonder if the Left-Handed Cop in the pic had a Left or Right throttle?!?!

                  What are the two bikes above in the very old picture? Look like stretched frame bicycles. ...bill

                    They are New Era's made in Dayton, Ohio in the early teens. There are still a few around, can anyone make out anything in the window behind?

                      Looks like "KODAKS" Maybe they sold cameras as well.

                        Try as I might I can't see KODAKS. The glare on the window makes it tough but we've got a race poster that you can go and see 10 races for a quarter. At the bottom of the window I believe I can make out the tail-end of motorcycles. I can't quite see the start of the letters because the bikes are overlapped. We've got us a bicycle and I'm not sure what the black contraptions hanging on the wall are. I can't make out the banner or the other two posters but if this is a motorcycle shop, they are strategically located as it looks like loans are available next door.........

                            Don't those posters behind the New Era's say "Ladies Day" and isn't there at least 3 firearms leaning against the shop wall on the right.

                              Tommo.....I took a closer look and I think your right about the Ladies Day posters. I believe your also right as well on the firearm theory. I can't quite figure out the shorter objects that are beside them though. Whaddya figure Scott?

                                The shop appears to be a Sporting Goods dealer as along with the rifles there is a display of work-out equipment as well as the bicycle in the foreground. And the KODAKS on the window appears fairly prominent. The small posters do seem to say Ladies Day Tommo.
