Autographed copy of the Holsman History Book - Courtesy of Chad Elmore, Senior Editor at Diesel Progress. Mr. Elmore was lucky enough to read a review of Franklin Tucker’s book back when he was in college and got this autographed copy from him. His automotive library has grown since then, but this is still one of his favorite books.

Ray Morey's Great Find, 1909 Model # 4 - When it was purchased new, it was a pretty stripped down version. It appears to have been ordered with no lights or fenders. The only options they added were a top and the optional leather seat, as opposed to the cloth. It will be, in all probability, one of the most bare bones examples that will exist according to Ray Morey of Restorations Unlimited (http://ru2inc.com/index.html)
