Unrelated, but worthy of notice....

[Perrysburg Journal, Perrysburg, Wood Co., O. [Ohio], February 14, 1913. Pg. 4]

   This same year Indian now:

1913 Indian Big Twin 1000cc

Fully restored from a very complete original motorcycle. Painted gray instead of the traditional Indian red, this bike turns heads no matter where it goes! First year for the "Cradle Spring Frame" that incorporated the world's first swingarm rear suspension system. Very fresh restoration and is ready for show or go.

$55,000.00

   Now THAT would have been a good investment!
