Another good show was had in Findlay with many good engins on display and many more good friends to visit with. Oh and YES it was HOT.








Dave 's little finished Galloway engin with John F., he made the front page of the local newspaper, sitting in the background.
 

You decide which one of these........ THINGS....... is called a Stover Junior and is a four horse power size.
 

This little coffee table engin was setting outside and was a real beauty, Hi Bob and Sheilla.
 

Here you see another shot of a Gilson as we seen three of them at the show. Below is the third one we pictured.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Arnie brought in his fine running Lorenz and we watched and listened to it run till the wee hours of the morn one night, around some of Arnie's snooring.
 

Here is probably the only load of junk engins to come into the show this year. It was rumored that they would run but that was unseen. The front is a 5hp Jacobson and the back is a Delco light plant, also on this load was a little Striggs and Bratton. Gwen is reading her book as Paul and Lou rest and relax to cool down a little before seeing more of the show.
 

Steve's hour glass styled Challenge ran tank after tank of fuel with no trouble, in the background are Dave and Arnie trying to cool off.
 

Two of these Scott & Ewing engins made the show this year, with this one belonging to Mark S.
 

Domestic engins where the feature engin this year and many of them showed up. We got to see 12 stove pipe models and everyone of them ran well along with many other fine examples from this company.
 

Here you see that it is a family show and that all types and kinds of engins where well represented.
 

As like many other shows Findlay does try and get an engin count, and like most shows the count is way off. Here you see a Stickney and another stove pipe. Findlay might be the best show of people as everyone knows everyone else. John R. is setting here talking to the owners of these engins.
 

Here you see a nice Richmond Standard, do you see these at every show?
 

This picture does not do justice to this exhibit as Rick M. has put together a fine display here.
 

The owner of this tractor painted it this color as his father bought it new and claimed it was painted this color. Here is another shot of the engin in this tractor.

 
 
 

It is not very often that tractors are included in my pictures, but this Cub is my father's and he just finished in time to make it to the show.  Findlay had 600 tractors on display and featured Garden tractors this year and had over 730 of them registered. Only 400 engins got registered but my guess would be closer to the 600 range, along with 9 steam engins.
