WHO SENT Me DOVER SLIDES FROM ARIZONA?

[dinoKeymaster]

And even more puzzeling is the return address says Western Australia? …even though the postmark is from Payson,Arizona. Joe M….is this YOU? register on the forum or e-mail the Info-history of shots and your connection. They’re dated 1965 and a bunch from 1972 !….Australia ? ❓

[dinoKeymaster]

WoW 😯 …just reviewd all 200 of them! ’72 shots include Hoinsky Bros. Day To Day flamed Vette, Tony Mone’s Brown ‘Quickshot” camaro, Little Swifty Altered,and a bunch more. Now the ’65 shots ARE impressive. Never before seen Black Arrow, Storm King, Ivo’s solid red Fueler, Beeline gasser, Flying Wedge Altered roadster, tons of gassers, altereds and a great close-up shot of T for Two. knew you’de ask…no Baby Torque or Tom Blake Coupe.

Just in at ‘homebase’:
“Greetings!
Arrived Australia Last Sunday. Did you receive the slides I sent? Were they any help?
Cheers, Joe”

……………Awaiting a reply for more info .

Wow… 200 slides…!!!

That’s gotta’ be big news around here.

May I suggest that you divide them up into two groups. One for 1965 and another for 1972. I will not be able to relate to the 1972 pictures.

There’s got to be an interesting story as to how these slides ended up in Arizona and the Austrailia link. Fill us in if you can.

Slides Done and on the way to me. AND Mystery Solved! Just got this from ‘Down Under” :

“Greetings!
I was born and raised in Newburgh, New York. Dover was our home track. We would some times run up to Lebanon Valley, mostly ran Dover. I am pleased that you could use the slides. Do I have access to view album? I am retired and spend most of my time here in Perth, Western Australia. I attend the drag and the sprint car races. Motor racing is alive and well in Australia.
Cheers, Joe Mastrella ”

….Joe will register soon and be activated as ODF . then He’ll see ALL the Galleries…His Too! (soon)
