From Rich Ostrander:
"Irish, Loved the piece on the Electric Chair. Enclosed you will find color photos of it, and Roth's 3 wheeler w/Crosley motor, that I took in '69 at the L.A. Custom Car and Motorcycle Show in Downtown L.A. just before I left for 'Nam. When you walked in the show, one was on each side of the doorway".

The pictures were a little faded - the color inks weren't the best 40 years ago, so I did a color correction on them, and they came out killer. Rich had sent me a bunch of pictures a little over a year ago from "way back when", and I scanned them all. I was trying to decide the best way to present them, and I think I'll scatter them in from time to time here. Rich even included a short description to go along with each picture, and I'll be including those notes just as Rich wrote them, too.

I didn't color correct any of those pictures, so they'll all have that "old timey" feel to them. A very special thanks to Rich for trusting somebody to copy all those irreplaceable photographs like the above. I appreciate it very much!
