When I first looked at this photo I thought the gas and oil tank had a wild psychedelic paint job which would seem very out of place for a picture taken in the mid 50's. 50's custom paint was usually abstract, but carefully defined geometric shapes bordered with pinstripes. However, within about 3 seconds I realized that those are shadows of the handlebars. What's interesting is, the photo was lit with multiple light sources which implies that this was a staged photo but a professional photographer would never position the light souces to cast shadows like that. Is this a Pohlman photo Chris?Eric Smith

My mistake,this would have to be a mid fifties photo,John was in college until 1957 and did not join Harley until 1960.Ken S., # 6457
