This is just the kind of photo I enjoy on a Sunday. See how marvellous the sculptor included the dust circles at the back of the car. The driver and co-driver sure need their goggles and leather helmets as the whole image just oozes speed! This bas-relief can be found on the William Massopust Building in Perth Amboy, New Jersey. The building stands on the corner of State & Chauncey near the Outerbridge. Jim McTernan, who took the photo, would very much like to know more about the history of this building and what it was used for. He thinks it might have been a car dealer or a repair shop, but is not certain. Who knows more?
