Hi all,
Some years back I purchased a negative on eBay... It appealed to me cause of the nice composition which suggest a passing of the guard, KH to Sportster.
Did nought with it since I haven't got decent enough software to sort it.
But I recently send it to a friend in France, Bernard, who's quite handy at cleaning and restoring old photos for his articles and books.
The result was a 162Mbts picture which I reduced a lot to publish here.
Looking at the background, seating area, track and high fence, it looks very much like the Milwaukee Show Grounds before 1960 for sure.
The KH sports a small headlamp, no horn, KR tin cover and special heavy duty footrests.
The 57 Sportster is more std, but seems to have a tray underneath and the front exhaust has a dent to clear the guard. Pretty muddy underneath.
Both bikes have numbers on the headlights, but too small for proper racing, so I assume club entertainment at a race meeting...
Anyone could correct me or tell me more?
See ya, Patrick
