This might be the second time I have ever come to this portion of this forum, I only did so because I saw a heading that said porcelain carburetor and that made me curious.  I then saw a heading that said picture for me.

That is a very nice picture and thank-you for thinking of me!  I will try and print that to frame.

There is  another whole story on the side of the building, google  Frank Seiberling, Goodyear, and Seiberling Tire co, for the bored who like financial intrigue ;P

(If you ever wondered what ever happened to the hundreds of little tire companies, that will give you the answer...)
