David Greenlees (OldMotor.com) just posted a terrific glamour postcard of the Stanley Steamer setting the Land Speed Record for steam powered cars, that stood for a hundred years


Found on https://www.facebook.com/david.greenlees.3


Above from http://deadlycurves.blogspot.com/2013/06/steam-power-how-stanley-steamer.html  where you can get a full accounting of the car, the Stanley brothers, and the outcome of the destruction! Thanks Portago!


I know I've mentioned it before, and posted about the recent attempts to reset the record, but I can't find that with a simple search... maybe some other time
