Otto Friedli's Wild & Crazy Panhead (Bill Ray Photo LIFE)
I've blogged this picture before, but since I just posted the article on Chuck Kuhl's molded knucklehead (see below), I wanted to repost Otto's machine, since its my favorite molded panhead. Enjoy!

Original 1925 Pendleton Round Up Poster
You can compare the 1925 poster with the original art Wallace Smith art shown in the second to last picture. The final shot is a nice aerial view of the Round Up and you'll notice the tepees encampment to the lower left middle. Pretty cool stuff!!! (last two pictures are from the Pendleton Round Up Hall of Fame Museum in Pendleton, OR.)
1940's Charley Paris "Warming Up" Series Rodeo Prints
My wife and I picked this pictures up while on our Christmas trip up the coast at an Antique Mall in Cambria, CA. Apparently Charley Paris started as a western artist then went on to be a career comic book artist. The pictures and frames are pretty cool!!!
