Paul,
About six months ago, you wrote me telling about a photo you saw in William Middleton's book "Interurban Era" that showed Portland Traction steeplecabs at Golf Junction. Well, I found that book and here is my take on that photo.

Absolutely astounding likeness.
For anyone who is interested see page 283 of The Interurban Era, by Middleton. If I had a way to make a copy of the book page, I would put it below, but my copier is not a flatbed model, so I can not.
Thank you Tim,
Paul.

I'm glad you like it, Paul. I'd scan the photo, but I wouldn't want to step on anybody's toes, copyright'n'all. Tim
