Here's another gem from the Wetherill collection, a movie still of a scene being filmed near Monument Valley:
Indian Attack On The Wagon Train, from the movie "Kit Carson" (1939)
Working on the final tweaks of "The 66 Kid." I found this cartoon in my garage morgue this morning. I did this way back in the Razz days (early 70s) and may use it to illustrate the con man ways of some Kingman gas stations:
I totally forgot about cool cushions, those straw seats you strapped over your hot vinyl seat covers to keep from blistering your legs.
Oh, and it turns out Teddy Roosevelt visited Kayenta and the Wetherill's in 1913.
"Time is cruel. Her years are tragic. The pioneers could not stay the approach of deadly civilization."
